Speaking on his podcast – Speed Street with Conor Daly and Joey Mulinaro – the Meyer Shank Racing driver, who was subbing for the sidelined Simon Pagenaud, explained the moment he came upon Sting Ray Robb’s left-rear wheel on lap 157.
Robb’s car had left pitlane without the wheelnut attached to its left-rear corner, and when he got to Turn 3 at low speed, it detached from the car and rolled up the racetrack, directly on to the racing line.
