Felix Rosenqvist returns to action in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES this weekend for round eight of the campaign: the Bommarito Automotive Group 500.\u00a0<\/strong>
\u00a0
Staged at the 1.25-mile (2.0 km) World Wide Technology Raceway \u2013 commonly known as Gateway \u2013 the up-coming race on the outskirts of St. Louis marks the first short oval event of the 2025 season.\u00a0
\u00a0
That makes for an interesting proposition, as the nature of the intense circular track differs greatly from all other venues contested so far this season, including the only previous oval of the ultra-fast, twice-as-long Indianapolis Motor Speedway.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201dThe first short oval of the season is always exciting,\u201d\u00a0says Felix Rosenqvist<\/strong>. \u201cIt\u2019s definitely the most tight and intense type of racing on the schedule and Gateway is a track I\u2019ve always enjoyed as well.\u201d<\/em>
\u00a0
Rosenqvist returns to his #60 Meyer Shank Racing Honda this weekend for the first time since his\u00a0race-ending accident<\/a>\u00a0in Detroit two weeks ago, determined to overcome an unfortunate blip in an otherwise encouraging campaign that sees him currently sit fifth in the overall standings.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cI feel essentially back to normal after the crash in Detroit and all good to go,\u201d\u00a0Rosenqvist continues<\/strong>. \u201cLet\u2019s see what we can do on this type of track, which is distinctly different to anything we\u2019ve done previously this year \u2013 including Indianapolis. It\u2019s a wide-open weekend and I can\u2019t wait to take it on!\u201d<\/em>
\u00a0
The Bommarito Automotive Group 500 is a two-day event, commencing with a busy Saturday schedule containing qualifying and two practice sessions.
\u00a0
Adding to the unique flavour to be served in St. Louis this weekend, Sunday\u2019s 260-lap (500 km) race is staged under floodlights with a start time of 7:00 pm local (U.S. Central).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
