## Resource

IndyCar’s making a quiet but crucial shift for the rest of the season—dialing back hybrid power by 10-25% starting at Road America to boost reliability. These systems, which can add up to 100 horsepower on road courses, have plagued teams with consistency issues. By reverting to earlier specs, the series aims to avoid supply snags and keep races running smoothly—with team insiders saying lap times won’t change much, just a few tenths. It’s a behind-the-scenes fix with big stakes: keeping the season on track without sacrificing the thrill. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
