It’s time for IndyCar to add a line to its rulebook to make life easier for drivers and teams: choose a cool shirt system or ballast. Uniquely conceived by teams in response to soaring cockpit temperatures since aeroscreen driver safety equipment became mandatory in 2020, the NTT IndyCar Series uses cool shirts as a selective method to reduce the core body temperature of drivers.
