Jack Harvey failed the cognitive test he was required to take following a hard crash in practice at Texas Motor Speedway and was not cleared to compete Sunday.
FORT WORTH, Texas —
Santino Ferrucci was named the replacement driver in the No. 45 Honda for Rahal Letterman Lanigan. Ferrucci drove the car in five races last year, and as a current Dallas resident was available when RLL needed an emergency fill-in. Harvey crashed in Saturday's final practice and IndyCar said the accelerometer that measures g-forces surpassed the minimum threshold. It meant he needed a Sunday evaluation and IndyCar did not clear him to compete.
The Rahal team had to build a new chassis to replace the one destroyed in the crash. IndyCar allowed the team to stay in the Texas garage until Sunday morning. Ferrucci was given a 15-minute session on track to get up to speed before the race and turned 10 laps.
