Two-time IndyCar Series champion and reigning Indianapolis 500 winner Newgarden set the pace with a flying lap of 1m06.7045s in the No. 2 Team Penske Chevrolet around the 2.3-mile, 17-turn natural terrain road course. The session occurred just a few hours after he gave an emotional press conference about his disqualification from the opening round at St. Petersburg. Arrow McLaren’s Pato O’Ward, who led the early portion of the session, concluded the 75-minute session in second at 0.
While the likes of O’Ward, reigning and two-time series champion Alex Palou, Grosjean, McLaughlin and Ericsson all occupied the top spot, Newgarden’s vault to the top came in the final 15 minutes to secure the spot for good. There is another 75-minute practice at 12:15pm ET tomorrow before qualifying begins at 3:30pm. Pos Nº Driver Car / Engine Time Gap Laps 1 2 Josef Newgarden Dallara/Chevrolet 1'06.7045 20 2 5 Patricio O'Ward Dallara/Chevrolet 1'06.7875 0.
