Why Palou’s latest IndyCar contract flip infuriated McLaren
Jean Alesi sought Nelson Piquet’s advice on looking professional in Formula 1 and was told to get a briefcase. Alesi later had four signed driver contracts, finally putting something in his briefcase. Now, Alex Palou’s situation is similar, as he has signed two contracts for two different teams in the same series. He has also potentially removed himself from a future shot at F1 with a top-four team that owns his superlicense. McLaren is seeking $23 million in damages from Palou for breaching his contracts.
