IndyCar had their Sonsio Grand Prix at the Indy Road Course this time last week, and all hell broke loose over a controversial incident early on in the race, when Alex Rossi’s car dies on the home straight with cars coming through at 170mph, while the series delayed a caution while the leaders chose whether or not to pit, and confusion when even the broadcast wasn’t sure if it was a Full Course Yellow. Rossi put the series on blast over a hybrid unit failing to work, and the danger of the situation.
It led to a grieving of issues that Dre, RJ and Cam have had with the series for sometime – Including the admittance that IndyCar have been making decisions based on flawed logic, and some of the marketing within the series after the Freedom 250 merchandise faux-pas and a rather touchy Meyer Shank livery, alongside elements of the FOX partnership.
It’s not for the faint of heart, don’t say we didn’t warn you. Oh, and Christian Lundgaard won.
