IndyCar update from Iowa

A bulletin went out to IndyCar teams today updating the rules for the qualifying heat race. Please see the rule that was added in the bulletin as it relates to the second practice sessions, which determines which line-ups for the 3 heat races.

a. 8.5.1.2. During the second practice session, if a Car interferes with a lap of another Car as determined by the Race Director:

a) On the first occurrence, the Car’s best two timed laps shall be disallowed.

b) On the second occurrence, all session times shall be voided, and the Car shall not be permitted to participate in the remainder of the session.

Also, Graham Rahal has had an unapproved engine change, which will result in a ten-spot grid penalty for Saturday’s race at Iowa Speedway
