Qualifying Postponed; Action Packed Sunday in Store

In the end the rain won the day, but IMS and the fans will get a huge victory tomorrow. Qualifying foe the 110th running of the Indianapolis 500 has been postpone to Sunday.\

The revised schedule: All times Eastern.

Practice split group, 30min apiece, 9:30 am-10:30 am

Qualifying starts at noon: All 33 drivers will get a single attempt.


At 4:30pm, the Top 12 run, single attempt.


At 6 pm, the Fast 6, single attempt, pole is set.

For older fans, qualifying will be like the old days, when each car/driver combination received one attempt to make the field. The pressure tomorrow comes for those who have a shot at the pole. Laps have to be perfect.

I like that the elimination round to determine the final 3 spots in the Fast 12 has been scratched.

Sunday will be an action-packed day filled with drama. I just hope the series anf IMS get the ifea to make qualifying one day affair in the future.

Today was a long day, and a valiant was put forth by the speedway to get the track ready to go. Things don’t always work out when man battles nature. A shoutout to all thre workers who drove countless laps attempting to dry the track.

And, an even bigger shoutout to all the fans who stayed until the end, enduring twice having to find shelter. Race fans are the greatest fans in the world.
