Team Penske driver sets himself up well for championship race with 68th career pole.
Will Power has his sights set on a second NTT IndyCar Series championship this weekend at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.
Power captured his fifth pole of the season to put himself in prime position to win the championship. A podium finish, regardless of what his competitors for the championship do on Sunday, will be enough to secure his second title.“It’s such a big day tomorrow that I can’t celebrate much because I’ve got to be so focused on tomorrow,” Power said after setting the pole mark. “Tremendous milestone. To be out there with an iconic guy like Mario is amazing.
“Awesome. I know how much I loved qualifying, and I can see he’s the same," Andretti, said."Trying to reach and trying to do the lap you know you cannot repeat. That’s what puts you on pole. It was coming. It’s beautiful. It’s great for the series and the sport. Records are made to be broken, and it’s with a good man.”Power’s best lap that was also worth a bonus point in the championship in the Firestone Fast Six was 1 minute, 11.6127 seconds.
