There have been three known issues thus far, with the latest happening during the first test session on ahead of this weekend’s $1 Million Challenge at The Thermal Club.
The final 20 minutes of Friday’s morning two-hour run of testing, the left-front of Marcus Ericsson’s No. 28 Andretti Global Honda caught on fire as he rolled around the 17-turn, 3.067-mile road course. When he was finally able to come back around to pit lane, his crew removed the tire and fragments of brake components could be seen falling from the car to the ground.
