The NTT IndyCar Series completed its second practice session of the weekend on Saturday morning in St. Petersburg with Christian Lundgaard setting the fastest time of 61.6157 seconds on the 1.8-mile course.
Lundgaard achieved his impressive time using the harder compound tire, as most drivers avoided using the alternate tires due to the damp conditions.
