“I just think from a sport perspective, the restarts are a joke” Scott McLaughlin believes IndyCar should change its procedures to prevent “stop-start, amateurish-looking” finishes to its races ⬇️

“I think when it goes green, there's kamikazes at the back and [they] don't care,” said McLaughlin. “Well within their right to throw it inside when it turns green. That's fine. But we have this terrible stop-start, amateurish-looking finish to races.

“We just need to go apex last corner or start/finish line. Make a point where you can't pass, just to get it going. I've done it in Supercars. Formula 1 does it. It just gets the race going.” The restart zone at Nashville was moved between Turns 9 and 10 this year, but McLaughlin was nonplussed by the change.

It led to a messy restart after the first yellow, when Pato O’Ward got into the back of McLaughlin’s car, and had to back off, causing him to be freight-trained as he got on to the marbles on the outside of the final two corners.
