Today’s schedule: Central times
Friday practice results:
Yesterday’s practice saw most cars sitting on pitlane for almost 10 minutes after an installation lap when the green flag waved. Was the wait to save tires? Fans didn’t pay to watch cars sit on pit lane.
Maybe The series should allow everyone an extra set of tires for practice or shorten the session length. Because of the length of the track, Friday’s practice was a straight session with no group running the final m30m minutes.
Personally, I thin Friday should have 2 45 minutes sessions with alternate tires allowed in the second session only.
More Chevy Engine Woes
The No. 5 (O’Ward), No. 6 (Siegel), No. 14 (Ferrucci) and No. 20 (Rossi) have undergone precautionary engine changes after Friday’s practice due to the same supplier quality issue experienced at the Detroit event. (From InydCar media)
The 14 and the 20 will serve grid penalties this weekend.
