INDIANAPOLIS -- Both of Dale Coyne Racing's teams were penalized by IndyCar on Tuesday.

Rookie driver Rodolfo Gonzalez was fined $500 for raising his visor during a refueling pit stop at Sunday's race at Mid-Ohio. Series officials said that violated the rule on personal safety equipment.

Tristan Vautier's team also was docked $500 because of a loose wheel nut -- a violation of the rule on unattended equipment.
