AJ Foyt Racing’s Benjamin Pedersen in the No.55 Sexton Properties Chevrolet will start Saturday’s GMR Grand Prix of Indianapolis on the IMS road course from 23rd place on the grid and speaking following the action the Danish AMerican stated:
“Honestly, it was a really good lap. Unfortunately, we just don’t quite have the speed in the car. Definitely the best lap I’ve done in an Indy car so I’m very proud of that. I think P23 for tomorrow. We’ll see if we can’t work some magic on the strategy perspective and have a really good race and move forward, which is the big goal. First time here in an Indy car and loving it. Just trying to get better and better every day.”
Santino Ferrucci in the No.14 Sexton Properties Chevrolet starts the race from 27th place and speaking following the action he commented saying:
“We just had another electrical issue that really set us back. Obviously, I just didn’t put together the cleanest one-lap run because we were trying to fight traffic and not impede anybody. It is so tight here. This is the tightest track we come to all year. Everyone’s got a million laps here. Our car is just not in the window yet. We’re working on it. We’re doing the best we can. Nothing like starting from the back and trying to make our way through the field tomorrow, and I’m sure we’ll do that.”
