Still leaves the run-offs in the wrong places.
I thought it might have something to do with the better direction of the natural lighting for the video work.

Sometimes they were. Other times they weren't. I think they were trying to give the appearance of racing on different tracks over a season or a career. The ferris wheel in the shot from atop turn 1? It's never been there. That's cgi. So is the blue paint in the runoff in that shot. On the shot at the car leaving the pits (from inside the garage) it was going the wrong direction as well.

OBTW, the IndyCar opener in Brazil was cancelled, so now they're looking for somewhere to kick off their season. Looks like one of the possibilities is COTA...
