Callum Ilott in the No.90 PREMA Racing Chevrolet had a great qualifying session for the team as he will start today’s Children’s Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park from 16th place after setting a fastest time of 01:07.7733s, and speaking following the action, he commented saying:
I think we’ve taken a really positive step this weekend so far, the car’s been good in every practice session, and we’ve just been fine tuning it. Being half a tenth off advancing to the next part of qualifying, there’s always a little bit more in it, but it’s nice to know that we were there or thereabouts so it’s a good step. We’ll focus on the race now, but I think we have a decent package here, which means we are heading in the right direction, so I’m looking forward to tomorrow.”
Robert Schwartzman starts the race from 24th place and speaking following the action he commented saying:
“Unfortunately, qualifying didn’t go well for us today. I was hoping for some rain because in those conditions during Free Practice the car felt quite good. Instead, it become quite windy during qualifying which unbalanced the car and I didn’t feel as confident with it. I didn’t manage to put it altogether for a proper lap, and while I don’t think it would have been top six this time, I think it could have been better. Now we will see what we can do tomorrow in the race.”
