Felix Rosenqvist made up four places to finish 14th\u00a0in the Grand Prix of Portland, the final road course event on this year\u2019s NTT INDYCAR SERIES schedule.<\/strong>
\u00a0
A two-time podium finisher at Portland International Raceway, Rosenqvist carried high hopes going into the weekend, but faced a steep challenge at the Oregon track after narrowly missing out in a close-fought qualifying session on Saturday.
\u00a0
From a less-than-ideal 18th\u00a0on the grid, the Meyer Shank Racing Swede then ran a largely undramatic race in the midfield, executing the conventional three-stop strategy to make small but steady gains across his stints.\u00a0

\u201cHard-fought P14, that was kind of all I had,\u201d\u00a0says Felix Rosenqvist<\/strong>. \u201dIt just hasn\u2019t been a great weekend for us. I feel like we have just been average and our finish lined up with that. It\u2019s crazy now in INDYCAR, if you don\u2019t have the perfect car in the race, you\u2019re not going to really go anywhere. Only left turns from here on out, and we\u2019ve been good on ovals, so let\u2019s move on.\u201d<\/em>
\u00a0
INDYCAR’s busy late-summer schedule continues apace with a double-header round at the Milwaukee Mile oval next weekend, with two races set to be staged across August 31-September 1. The final round of the season follows just two weeks later at Nashville Superspeedway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
