Linus Lundqvist took pole position in his young IndyCar career, handling changing conditions the best among the drivers. Colton Herta and Marcus Armstrong secured the second and third fastest times after looking quick all weekend. Josef Newgarden suffered a massive crash on his final lap, hitting the wet curbing at The Kink and smashing into the wall, although he walked away unharmed. Despite Newgarden’s crash, Sunday’s forecast is dry, setting the stage for an intense 55-lap race with ample grip for the drivers to push their limits. Lundqvist will lead the pack in his Chip Ganassi Racing Honda, aiming to convert pole position into a strong finish in the upcoming race at IndyCar Road America.
