The NTT INDYCAR SERIES is staging its final road course event of the 2024 campaign this weekend as the Grand Prix of Portland comes into play – and Felix Rosenqvist goes west looking to uphold a strong record in the Oregon race.
The site of Rosenqvist’s second career INDYCAR podium in 2019, Portland International Raceway has remained happy hunting grounds ever since, the Swede holding a 100 % top ten finishing record across four starts at the venue and picking up another podium at the two-mile track last year.
Coming off the back of another strong effort last weekend at World Wide Technology Raceway, where he finished sixth despite a refuelling issue on the final pit stop, Rosenqvist is keen to turn both right and left for the final time this season, with just three oval races remaining after this weekend’s event.
“Portland is a track that I really like,” says Felix Rosenqvist. “I’ve had two second place finishes there, so hopefully I can beat that this weekend. I think it could be a good place to exploit the potential that we’ve had all year. I feel like we’re back in our groove again after some bumps in the road. I’m super excited for the last road course of the year and heading out west again.”
Rosenqvist has enjoyed a largely encouraging first season with the Meyer Shank Racing organization in 2024, and improved to a tied tenth in the overall INDYCAR standings last weekend. With four races to go this season, the 32-year-old is currently on course to score the team’s best-ever championship finish.
The Grand Prix of Portland begins with opening practice on Friday. Qualifying takes place on Saturday, with the 110-lap race scheduled to start at 12:30 pm local time (U.S. Pacific) on Sunday.
