Controversy and Chaos at Long Beach IndyCar Grand Prix.

Callum Ilott has called for reimbursement of damage sustained by his IndyCar after a kerb was replaced overnight without all teams being informed. Ilott and Rinus VeeKay both appeared to clip the new kerbing and were launched airborne momentarily before hitting the tyre barrier at the exit of Turn 5. Ilott said he hadn’t been made aware of any track changes overnight and added: “If they did and didn’t tell us, they can pay for the damage, because that’s a joke”. IndyCar didn’t send out a series-wide communication because the circuit specifications hadn’t changed compared to 2022.
