INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Two-time champion Takuma Sato led a strong showing from the quartet of Chip Ganassi Racing in final practice for the Indianapolis 500 on Friday, while Graham Rahal and Kathryn Legge worked hard to prepare before race day.

Sato ran a fast lap of 227.855 mph early in the session, and teammate Scott Dixon was right behind with Alex Ballou fourth on the pace chart. Defending race winner Marcus Ericsson was not far from the Ganassi stable, who is trying to give his team owner his sixth win in “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing”.

“We’re better than most,” Ganassi said before the two-hour Carb Day session. “I hope it will be the same in racing.”

The 33-car field turned out 2,355 laps on a warm, sunny day, although many pulled the plug early as things got a little hot on the track. At one point, Santino Ferrucci got impatient behind Alexandre Rossi in the warm-up lane and went around him, then watched Rossi go down to pass him on the track to the point that his left side tires were in the grass.

“It was the intensity. Everyone was running the race today, kind of rehearsing what it was going to be like, and that was good,” said Josef Newgarden of Team Penske. But maybe there are some moments you don’t want to face.”

Arrow McLaren’s stalwart Felix Rosenqvist, who has pushed Ganassi’s team for the past two weeks, was among those who closed it out early. Rosenqvist was happy with his car but was not willing to put it at undue risk.

“We feel better,” said the Swede, who finished fourth a year ago and will move up to third on Sunday. “It was a little annoying with people out there on the lawn, so we’re like, ‘Let’s stop it.'” “

It turned out to be a good idea. Not more than 10 minutes had passed after Devlin DiFrancesco’s tire went flat, sending sparks shooting from the back of his car. He managed to get it off the wall and escaped further damage.

“It was an old set,” DiFrancesco said of the tyres. “We’ll be fine running the race.”

Legge, who was in trouble with Stefan Wilson on Monday, continued to have problems. I had a 15-minute private session on Thursday with Graham Rachel, who replaced an injured Wilson in the Dreyer & Reinbold Racing entry, and saw a “choppy” sound in the car. Then on Friday, a loose tire caused her to stall on the backstretch.

Rahal is buried deep in the speed chart, though the raw numbers can be misleading as drivers tune their cars in different ways. Some never get a clean lap because they’re practicing going through traffic one last time before a race.

However, it was a crucial session for Rahal, who failed to qualify his own Rahal Letterman Lanegan car last weekend. The longtime Honda driver has been getting first laps for as long as he can remember in a Chevrolet powered car, and Rahal had a long list of things to check. He also spent a lot of time working stops with a brand new crew.

“I feel like we have a very strong opportunity with that,” Rahal said. “I just need a few laps to understand that. I wouldn’t have done this if I didn’t think it was a good chance to win it. I don’t need the co-prizes, do I? I want to win this.”

cleaning, lane 3

Ryan Hunter-Reay had to hop around mid-session as fluid started splattering from his car. His crew determined it was a relatively minor gearbox leak that needed to be cleaned up, but IndyCar apparently did not allow the car to return to the track.

“The guys were kind of shocked they locked us out for that. We haven’t had a single problem the whole month,” said Hunter-Ray. “We lost an hour of practice but I was really happy with the 23. It’s better if that happened today than Sunday.”

Andretti’s day

Marco Andretti posted on social media that he was fine after news filtered that he was involved in a car crash the night before at 16th Street, which runs outside Turns 1 and 2.

On the track, Andretti set a fast lap on par with Ericsson, Rosenqvist and several racing favorites.

Excuse me

RC Enerson, who was on a one-off ride with Abel Motorsports, got some much needed time off on Friday. But the newbie also got a significant experience in digging, and it seems to be needed. Enerson came one time and nearly stopped in the wrong pit stall, swerving out at the last minute and finding the correct box.

“I think we had a strong car. I have to get back on the hunt early on from the box,” said Enerson, explaining that he had trouble distinguishing between multiple teams in red.
