Doug Boles, the President of IndyCar and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, provided more clarity on the new independent officiating system that will be in place beginning in 2026.
Last Thursday, IndyCar announced a three-member Independent Officiating Board (IBO), which will govern INDYCAR Officiating Inc. - a recently created non-for-profit - and elect a Managing Director of Officiating (MDO) to oversee the competition side of the sport. Chartered team owners chose two members via a vote, selecting motorsports legend Ray Evernham and automotive veteran Raj Nair. The other member, Ronan Morgan, was appointed by the FIA.
