🗣 'People, in my mind, were getting away with some pretty crazy restarts' 🤪 Alexander Rossi has hit out at the “jump starts” that he felt his rivals were allowed to get away with during Sunday’s Indy500 👇
“For me, it’s the jump starts that we need to look into,” he told NBC Peacock after the race. “I felt that Marcus had a huge one. [Alex] Palou had one… I dunno, maybe we weren’t doing a good enough job. It’s certainly something to look into.
“When the chaos started, after Felix’s crash, it was a lap and then a crash and then a lap and then another crash. And people, in my mind, were getting away with some pretty crazy restarts.” Rossi had less issue with the controversial decision to red flag the race for a green-white-checkered finish, which pushed IndyCar’s mantra of trying to finish races under green to its absolute limit.“I don’t know, you can see arguments on both sides,” he said. “And it didn’t affect us much as we were restarting in fourth, it’s not like we were leading. But I’ve never seen a leave pit lane to a white flag before.
