INDYCAR announced Wednesday that the $10,000 fine and probation levied against Sebastien Bourdais June 11 has been rescinded following review.
Bourdais penalties were a league reaction to the on-track incident between the KVSH Racing driver and Justin Wilson during the Firestone 600 at the Texas Motor Speedway. Bourdais was originally found to violate Rule 9.3.1 which reads:
9.3.1. Improper Conduct - Any Member attempting to or engaging in unsportsmanlike conduct, unsafe conduct, or conduct detrimental to racing; INDYCAR; and/or to the IndyCar Series, whether during an Event or on/off the Track, may be subject to any or all penalties. Improper conduct shall include, without limitation:
9.3.1.1. Engaging in reckless, careless, unsafe, and/or overly aggressive actions, or unsportsmanlike behavior toward Members, or others;
9.3.1.2. Impeding the conduct of an Event, including Car control, placement and inconsistent driving pattern;
9.3.1.3. Causing an avoidable Yellow or Red Condition;
9.3.1.4. Endangering the safety of Members, or others;
9.3.1.5. Failing to participate at competitive speed;
