I think any improvement to safety is a good thing. But also, they are acting like they invented the wheel. When in reality it seems they reinvented a wheel that maybe isn't as good as the original.

IndyCar reveals new Medical Unit for 2023 season (https://us.motorsport.com/indycar/news/indycar-reveals-new-medical-unit-for-2023-season/10426606/)


The transporter with double slide-outs will “provide an environment for consistent and accessible care during each NTT IndyCar Series and Indy NXT by Firestone event.

Previously, IndyCar’s medical team utilized a combination of a mobile trailer and the facilities available at the venues that host events. With the substantially upgraded mobile unit, the sanctioning body can better serve its growing paddock.

“IndyCar medical has always been the industry standard of care and service in motorsports,” said series president Jay Frye. “The investment into the IndyCar Medical Unit is an important step in continuing that expectation and assuring that all personnel will receive excellent care.”

Yeah, that's pretty rich. I guess they own the history so they can rewrite it as they please. Next they'll be acting like Paul Tracy never won the Indy 500.
