Following last Sunday’s IndyCar race at the Thermal Club, IndyCar issued penalties and fines to two teams.

Colton Herta’s number 26 entry failed post race tech inspection when officials found one of the two required anti intrusion plates was not installed. Andretti was fined $25,000 and lost 10 entrant points. Hertta keeps his fourth place finish and his driver points.

The number 83 of Robert Shwartzman received a penalty for use of an unapproved part stemming from the fire in his car during Friday’s practice’

PREMA was fined $25,000 and lost 10 entrant points.

Notes

The Pit Window will be returning to summer headquarters next week, so unless Liberty Media buys the series or IMS I won’t be posting until next Saturday.

I’m very excited to get a look at the renovated Speedway Museum, but that may have to wait until after Long Beach.
