TL;DR Summary

IndyCar's new aero package for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has been criticized by drivers for not improving racing. The package, which includes additional underwing wickers and a new rear wing main plane pillar, has created a 'DRS train' effect where cars run nose-to-tail behind the leaders. Drivers have said that only the first two lead cars can overtake each other, and running in traffic is still a challenge. However, some drivers have praised the new parts for giving teams more options to run more downforce in their cars.
