During Kyle Larson’s first attempt to qualify for the Indianapolis 500, his No. 6 Arrow McLaren/Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet experienced engine issues after three laps, leading him to abandon the run and pit for inspection. Larson mentioned that an alarm on the engine caused a power loss, and they were not able to make it past Turn 2. Hendrick’s Brian Campe, Larson’s race strategist, stated that they are investigating the problem and hoping to get back on the track by mid-afternoon. Despite the setback, they believe they have good speed and understand that these things can occur in racing. Campe, who won the 2015 Indy 500 as a race engineer, is working with the team to diagnose and resolve the issue promptly.
