Laguna grid penalty for Vips
IndyCar has imposed a six-position starting grid penalty on the No. 30 Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing Honda, driven by rookie Juri Vips, due to an unauthorized engine change after Friday practice at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. This violation was in breach of Rule 16.2.3.2, which states that a team can only earn Engine Manufacturer points with a fifth engine if they have completed the Full Season Entrant Engine Mileage with their first four engines. Otherwise, any additional engine changes are considered unapproved and do not earn points. This penalty comes after a similar penalty was announced on Friday for the Juncos Hollinger No. 78 Chevrolet, driven by Augustin Canapino.
