“We seemed to plateau from Practice 1 where we were fifth. The whole team has fallen in competitiveness as every session has gone on. So, unfortunately everyone is sitting right now in eighth, 11th and 13th. We don’t know the reason, we’re all scratching our heads. But, looking down pit lane, the usual top qualifiers didn’t advance to the Firestone Fast Six, except for Dixon. We’ll look at it tonight. Historically, this has been a strong track for us and it’s way too complicated out there for us right now – but we’ll work to find a solution and fight hard for the DHL team.”
The grid is set for Sunday’s 10th annual Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama and Alexander Rossi will roll off as the highest team entry in eighth.
- STARTING POSITION: 11th
- QUALIFYING TIME: 01:09.0764
- OF NOTE: Qualified in Round 1 with Group 2, advanced to Round 2 before setting an 11th-best qualifying time
The green flag flies in Alabama at 4:15pm ET with live broadcast beginning at 4pm ET on NBC Sports Network.
