Herta cruises past his father with Laguna Seca victory
CTV
The new faces of IndyCar dominated at Laguna Seca, where Colton Herta won the race, Alex Palou moved an easy Sunday drive away from the championship and Romain Grosjean was treated like a rock star.
Herta routed the field -- and ran over "either a squirrel or bunny" while doing so -- as he won from the pole Sunday, same as he did in 2019 when IndyCar last raced the sprawling permanent road course. He later congratulated the dead animal embedded under his car for its first career IndyCar victory.
"He's done a lot more than a lot of IndyCar drivers," Herta joked.
But for the actual driver it was his second win of the season and Herta tied his father, Bryan, with a pair of wins at Laguna Seca.
