LEBANON, Tenn.—Alex Palou easily drove to his third IndyCar championship in four years when challenger Will Power’s seatbelt came loose minutes into the season-deciding finale Sunday at Nashville Superspeedway.
“When I saw [Power] going to pit lane, at first I was like, ‘Oh, what strategy are they going to do?’” Palou said. “Unfortunately, that’s not the way. Obviously, you don’t want your biggest competitor to go down that way in the season finale. It was very dangerous what happened to him.”
