Team orders may come into play at this weekend’s Hy-Vee Milwaukee doubleheader for the two top championship contenders in the NTT IndyCar Series. Chip Ganassi Racing’s Alex Palou holds a 54-point lead over Team Penske’s Will Power heading into the penultimate race of the season. Despite Scott Dixon being 101 points behind Palou, the team is not considering implementing team orders at this time. With a maximum of 162 points available, Dixon and other contenders like McLaughlin and Newgarden would need significant miracles to close the gap. Power is open to team support to enhance his championship bid, but decisions will likely be made based on race performances rather than pre-defined team strategies.
