I've got no real idea what is going on here.......
Didn't Smokey Yunick have something to do with this? Indy springs to mind.
That would make sense in the way the car is set up to offset the central weight bias of the driver & cockpit to the left hand side and therefore gaining the advantage for a circuit that races anti clockwise

Today's nightmare is racing that, and spinning it 180 before hitting the wall
Or the day (as has happened on occasion over the years) they decide to run the race backwards (or turning up to Brands in 1954 not knowing they'd reversed the circuit direction!)
I was lucky enough to ride the Ring backwards once - incredible how different everything feels, particularly where a steep gradient is involved
