NASCAR has strategically placed tire packs around the track in Mexico City to prevent drivers from cutting corners. They’ve added yellow lines through the esses, imposing penalties for crossing them. Most drivers welcome the tire packs, like Bubba Wallace, who believes they keep racers on track limits. NASCAR is avoiding placing tire packs in high-speed sections after incidents like the one at Charlotte Roval. Chase Elliott noted the impact of tire packs on sim preparation, expecting a different approach to corners on track. Drivers are eager to adapt their strategies during practice sessions in response to the new track layout.
