Opinion: Sunday’s Laguna Seca IndyCar race left several inside the paddock, and fans on social media, frustrated by a Race Control call, and it’s something that needs to be addressed
There was a moment at Laguna on Sunday that undoubtedly followed IndyCar Race Control’s protocol, but it left many questioning why that is so in the first place. With 21 laps to go, Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing’s Christian Lundgaard was attacking Marcus Armstrong, who’d just exited the pits and was on cold tires. The Dane lunged to the inside of Armstrong going into Turn 5, which led to contact and sent the No. 11 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda off course near the tire barrier.
He was the only driver to pit on lap 84 and returned to second place, not needing to push on an out-lap, as the rest of the field was slowed by the caution. He ended up finishing second. The fastest race lap at the 1.964-mile, 12-turn road course was done in 59.3s by Newgarden.
