IndyCar: Juncos Hollinger team and Canapino put on demo in Buenos Aires (2nd Update)
Agustin Canapino breaking the lap record at Termas de Rio Hondo in Santiago with a time of 1m29.88s. An F1 car would lap around 1m15s and, hence, lap the 12-year-old IndyCar relic every 6 or 7 laps.

in Termas de Rio Hondo 🤩
Time: 1:29.88
A “green” track, with an exhibition setup and just 2 exits to the track. Even so, by far, the circuit record was made.
Awesome how fast the beast goes!⚡️ pic.twitter.com/hxf97nFJPh
