Low clﷺouds delay🎀ed the arrival of the medivac helicopter to the 2.5-mile circuit in northeastern Pennsylvania.
Tꦆeams waited in a holding pattern on pitlane before pushing the cars back to൩ the garage. A heavy rain shower drenched the circuit shortly after that and ultimately negated qualifying.
INDYCAR officials elected to extend this afternoon’s pre-scheduled one-hour session to two hours to give teams time to dial in their cars for tomorrow’s 200-lap event. That is contingent on the helicopter reaching the🗹 track and the track is dry.
