During this time of the season, NTT IndyCar Series teams are facing penalties for making unapproved engine changes, resulting in grid demotions. Three Honda-powered drivers, including Graham Rahal, Kyle Kirkwood, and David Malukas, are set to drop six positions on the grid for the BitNile.com Grand Prix of Portland. These penalties stem from exceeding the allotted four engines per year, with any additional changes incurring further demotions. The affected drivers represent Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, Andretti Global, and Meyer Shank Racing respectively. These adjustments were made following the previous race at World Wide Technology Raceway.
