Racecars sometimes do funny things at slow speeds, including after running almost flat for 2 hrs. Power's car wouldn't restart after a red flag in Detroit two weeks ago, Newgarden's gearbox failed with 2 laps to go on a restart last weekend.
Perfect race, leading HAM in the championship, just cross the line then shenanigans. VER probably has enough momentum there to still cross the line with a full PER style shutdown, but.....
