Summary
IndyCar just tweaked its pit lane penalty rules ahead of Mid-Ohio—no more locking teams out for emergency stops during caution periods. Drivers needing urgent fuel or repairs can now pit once the lane reopens, even if they’re penalized, while rule-breakers like speeding or causing accidents still face the old penalty. It’s a smart, subtle fix that keeps fairness intact while giving teams a lifeline when caution hits at the worst time.
