NTT INDYCAR SERIES | Rd. 15<\/strong>
PREVIEW <\/strong>Bommarito Automotive Group 500 (USA)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Felix Rosenqvist is ready to take on the final oval race of the 2022 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season this weekend as the U.S. single-seater championship descends on World Wide Technology Raceway.<\/strong>

The 1.25-mile (2.1 km) oval – commonly known as “Gateway” – is staging the Bommarito Automotive Group 500, with the “500” denomination referring to the 500 km race distance (260 laps).

Felix Rosenqvist’s best result at Gateway is a seventh-place finish in 2020. The Arrow McLaren SP Swede also finished seventh in the latest INDYCAR race in Nashville two weeks ago, and is keen to back up recent highlights – including pole position at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and a podium in Toronto – with another competitive showing.   

\u201cI feel strong <\/em>heading<\/em> to Gateway,\u201d <\/em>says Felix Rosenqvist<\/strong>. \u201cWe got through all the <\/em>chaos<\/em> of Nashville in one piece and we’ve been strong on all the ovals this <\/em>year<\/em>. I was on pole in Texas, <\/em>we had a great <\/em>Indy<\/em> 500, and Pato (O’Ward, team-mate) won the latest oval race in Iowa. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Qualifying is going to be key this weekend. It’s difficult to overtake at Gateway and starting up front is always a great help. If we can qualify in the top ten or somewhere in that region, I think we’ll have a strong race car allowing us to fight for the win.\u201d<\/em>

Practice and qualifying for the Bommarito Automotive Group 500 take place on Friday. The green flag then flies on Saturday, marking the 15th race on the 17-round NTT INDYCAR SERIES agenda. The last two races are staged in September at Portland and Laguna Seca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
