Penske’s Will Power lauded Meyer Shank Racing’s newcomer Felix Rosenqvist after he dominated the opening day of IndyCar Series practice at St. Petersburg on Friday.
Rosenqvist lapped his Honda-powered MSR machine in 1m00.339s, almost half a second quicker than his rivals after his off-season switch from Arrow McLaren. The rest of the top 10 were covered by less than three tenths, which moved fourth-fastest driver Will Power of Penske to state that “Felix is on another planet out there”. “Kinda surprised,” said Rosenqvist. “We were really good out of the gates, really confident, which I’ve been since pre-season testing.
I feel more confident on those kind of tracks.” Behind McLaren’s Pato O’Ward, Marcus Armstrong was the fastest of the five Chip Ganassi Racing drivers, just 0.007s off the second spot. “The car started off in a difficult spot,” said Armstrong, who was third fastest. “And, to be fair, it didn’t actually feel that good at the end. But we’re still up there, so what more can I ask for?” Power, who was fourth quickest, said: “Felix is on another planet out there, but everyone else is really close.
