During the Indianapolis 500, a tire from Kyle Kirkwood's car flew into the parking lot and hit a fan's car. Penske Entertainment has offered to replace the damaged vehicle. The incident occurred when Felix Rosenqvist's car made contact with the outside wall, causing it to spin out and make contact with Kirkwood's car. Fortunately, nobody was seriously injured, and both drivers were able to get out of their cars under their own power. Roger Penske spoke with Dallara executives to see if there is anything that can be done differently to prevent a similar incident from happening again.
