Romain Grosjean used a line from the movie 'Days of Thunder' to shrug off criticism from Graham Rahal following late contact between the two in last week's IndyCar race.

Romain Grosjean used a line from the movie "Days of Thunder" to shrug off criticism from Graham Rahal following late contact between the two in last week's IndyCar race.

Grosjean was then stopped by an old acquaintance; warmly greeted by a former team member; and greeted in French by a fellow countryman. He's been out of F1 since his fiery wreck in late 2020 and now races in IndyCar, where in one season he was voted the series' most popular driver and moved into a seat with Andretti Autosport.

The two were battling for seventh and eighth and Rahal felt he gave Grosjean enough room for a fair race for position. Instead, he alleged Grosjean intentionally hit him and then attacked Grosjean's reputation. "Another driver in the series told me, 'You can't teach an old dog new tricks,' and that's kind of been his reputation his whole career in Europe," Rahal said. "We're learning his reputation quickly here. To me, if race control doesn't want to do anything, then they're not going to do anything. But when we go and punt him, they better not do anything to me, when in the past, I've been penalized for a lot less than that.
