Ikaris is massively faster than light in flight speed and was able to react to Makkari who is fast enough to run around the globe in seconds.
He just doesn't have the damage output or strength to contend with Superman. While Superman should be able to tag him due to being able to contend with Flash who is massively FTL.

Only when given time and distance to gather enough speed and momentum. It's not like Flash can hit time-reversal speeds at a whim.Superman still beats Ikaris though.
In JL, he hits FTL in a fairly short distance when they revived Superman.
He runs from around the back of the scout ship to the regen chamber and right before he touches the Mother Box, time has started to move backwards from his POV. So we're talking less than 1/4 mile to hit FTL speed.

Sure. All I'm saying is that I doubt he can go that fast in the middle of a fight against another speedster. He certainly didn't seem to be moving that fast when he fought Superman.

He didn't fight Superman at these speeds. Why are you mentioning Flash best?
