Juncos Hollinger Racing’s Conor Daly says the team will be in the fight for Sunday’s Honda Indy 200 at the Mid-Ohio Sportscar Course presented by the All-New 2026 Passport.
The Noblesville native just missed out on a place in the Firestone Fast 12 and starts the race from a season-best 13th place.
Speaking following the action, Daly said:
“I was just trying to hustle so much out of the first set of reds. We just kind of missed the the tire pressure window. And, for us it seemed to be just lap two was the only one that was going to work and and just in turn six I tried just too hard to get too much out of it and I mean we’re talking three- hundreds, right? So, it was a pretty mighty lap other than that. I mean we picked up almost seven-tenths from the run before. Just thankful for this team and we’ve been slowly getting there. Road America, we were like two seconds off the pace. So, this is a good step forward for us on the road course package and and we’re certainly in the fight for tomorrow.”
Sting Ray Robb starts the race from 19th and speaking following the action he said:
I felt like we had a really good car today. The field is just so tight that, like, little things make a big difference, and I feel like we could have transferred if I just finished the last few turns on our lap. So it’s unfortunate that we’re starting where we’re starting, because we have a really good car.”
