Summary
Alex Palou’s IndyCar championship lead took a hit after a penalty for a front wing height violation at the Indy 500 — one side dipped below the eight-point-three-inch rule due to a mounting part loosening mid-race. The team faced a $10,000 fine and lost five championship points each for Palou and the team, though his seventh-place finish remained unchanged. Officials are investigating why only one side was affected, especially since no extra sealants were used on the bolts — a similar incident last year involving PREMA Racing highlights how strict these rules are. The probe continues as Palou’s championship cushion shrinks. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
