Saturday’s race had already ended prematurely under a red flag due to lightning. On Sunday morning, the IndyCar management decided to interrupt the ongoing qualifications due to track conditions deemed too dangerous.<\/p>\n
The misfortune of some… makes the happiness of others<\/b><\/p>\n
The big loser in this decision is the American Sage Karam. The rookie was leading the timing sheet for group 1 of the qualifications. However, he will start 20th, his position in the championship.<\/p>\n
The winners are inevitably the drivers starting at the front; Juan Pablo Montoya, the championship leader, and Will Power, the reigning champion. In rainy conditions, the leaders don’t have the spray from the cars ahead of them.<\/p>\n
70 laps or 2 hours of racing<\/b><\/p>\n
As with the first race, the length of the event is 70 laps, or a maximum duration of 2 hours, unless the weather intervenes again. On Saturday, the IndyCar management displayed the red flag after 47 laps, after 1.5 hours of racing.<\/p>\n
Carlos Munoz won this Saturday’s race thanks to an aggressive strategy from his Andretti Autosport team, despite starting 20th on the grid.<\/p>\n
