Qualifying - I think quali is split into two groups. it’s really windy. 13 drivers in the first group only 6 move forward. They use Firestone tyres unlike f1 who use Pirelli tyres. Pato 3rd , Marcus 2nd. Alex palou does not advance. Marcus Ericsson first. The 6 from each group become the Firestone fast 12.
Group two are now on track. In this group Dixon, Grosjean , Rosenqvist and Fittipaldi. Grosjean was 2nd , rosenqvist 3rd and Dixon 5th.
Q2 aka fast 12 which turns into the fast 6. The fast 6 is Q3. Gro 5th, ros 1st, pato 6th so a few of my favourites through to the fast 6. Colton Herta gets track record but was overtaken by Felix.
Q3 aka Fast 6. 4 of the 6 are drivers I like but pato and felix are my absolute favourites. 4 mins 30 seconds left and Romain was faster. 3 mins 35 seconds left and Rosenqvist fastest. 1 minute 15 seconds left and pato is fastest. As time runs out Newgarden and Rosenqvist overtake pato so he qualified 3rd.
Race day
Can only watch the first hour because motogp is on. Never mind I will just watch motogp highlights later and I will watch all of IndyCar. Christian Rasmussen stuck in pit, his car won’t start. Rasmussen is back up and running. Lundgaard has a puncture on back tyre on lap one. Lap 25 nothing interesting happening so far. Lap 27 Marcus Armstrong in the fence. Part of an advert banner that was on the barrier got tangled around his back right tyre. Pato into 3rd on lap 33. Sting ray robb out lap 35 or 36. Don’t know what happened to him. Lap 37 pato p2. Lap 54 Ericsson has some issues and is stuck in the pits. Lap 69 Linus Lundqvist in the barrier in the same place as Armstrong. They are teammates as well. He’s made it to the pits though. Ericsson is officially out of the race on lap 72. Otmar the ex- alpine team principal is at the race. 14 laps to go I think something happened with romains car. He is out of the race.
The top three are josef Newgarden, pato o’ward and Scott McLaughlin
