Four Honda-powered NTT IndyCar Series entries have been assessed nine-spot grid penalties for going beyond the permitted number of engines for the season. The unapproved engine changes were made to the championship-leading No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing car of Alex Palou, this week in the new colors of Samaritan’s Purse (pictured above); teammate and third-place contender Scott Dixon in the No. 9 Ganassi entry; plus the No. 51 Dale Coyne Racing car driven this weekend by Katherine Legge; and Felix Rosenqvist’s No. 60 Meyer Shank Racing Honda.

That meant no promotion for Daniel Ricciardo or Yuki Tsunoda — moves that would have opened up a seat for Lawson (pictured above) — but Marko says the New Zealander’s future will be resolved soon.
