IndyCar officials have officially disallowed the qualifying times of Caio Collet and Jack Harvey following technical inspection failures.
Both drivers suffered severe setbacks after their vehicles failed to meet the strict post-qualifying regulations set by the series organizers.
The technical infractions found during the mandatory garage inspection mean both competitors will lose their hard-earned grid positions.
As a direct result of the ruling, Collet and Harvey will be forced to start the upcoming race from the very back of the field.
Series technical directors emphasized that strict compliance with hardware dimensions and weight specifications is non-negotiable to ensure fair competition.
The unexpected penalties will completely alter race strategies for both teams as they now face a difficult climb through the pack on race day.
