*UPDATED* Grand Prix Course Offical Admits the track was flawed

I was down at the Baltimore Grand Prix today and apparently the drivers are not that happy with the course this year, even with the removal of the chicane that was on Pratt St last year.​

​Here's what happened today during practice.

So queue up a lot of concerned race officials inspecting the track.

​Oh boy Michael doesn't look happy

It appears to be an issue with railroad tracks across a race track.​

Eventually after some inspection, a team comes into grind the course road around the tracks down.

GRINDING!​

After the grinding is done this gentleman comes over and speaks to someone named Ed.​

​Which has inevitably lead to the chicane being added back to the course and is now marked as Turn 13 much to the dismay of racing fans.

​Here was Michael Andretti on how the course modifications were affecting the drivers.
