Will Power experienced the seventh engine issue for Chevrolet in two days of Indianapolis 500 qualifying.
INDIANAPOLIS — Will Power experienced the seventh engine issue for Chevrolet in two days of Indianapolis 500 qualifying when his Team Penske entry sputtered Sunday during practice ahead of the afternoon pole shootout.
Rahal, who was bumped from the field last year, is among four cars trying for the last three spots in the 33-car field Sunday. Sato is the highest-qualified RLL driver after going ninth Saturday, putting him among the 12 going for the pole. It didn't hurt McLaren's hopes when Power suffered what Chevrolet calls a"plenum event" during Sunday's practice.Chevrolet officials addressed the issue after six cars had the problem Saturday, and Kyle Larson and Pato O'Ward of McLaren both had engine changes.
Campbell promised that General Motors would be working globally to address the plenum events, which IndyCar program manager Rob Buckner said involved components inside the engine that misfire on downshifts. The issue cost O'Ward a victory in the 2022 season-opening race when his McLaren seemed to briefly shut off.
