Shwartzman finishes 29th on Carb day.
This brings some flashbacks to the 90s and Loy Allen Jr. The guy who came from out of no where to win the pole at the Daytona 500. And that'd be about the only thing he'd ever achieve in NASCAR. Hoping for better for Shwartzman.
ECR didn't have a great day. Penske/Ganassi up top. Defrancesco is top 5 today. RLL is all over the place! Castroneves was top 10.
Veekay finally got over 222 mph, which was better than the 220. This car likely won't win, but 222 will be better than 220. Herta, Simpson, McLaughlin, Armstrong who are still getting there with rebuilds, 21, 31, 27, and 18, respectively.
Ryan Hunter Reay (who was top 10), had the engine fire. Graham Rahal's car gave out. Rossi lost a water pump. Takuma Sato's car slowed down, no word on what happened there. Going to be a long weekend for some crews.
If Shwartzman and Sato have issues, that could really make the start of the Indy 500... interesting.
