Felix Rosenqvist backed up his Road America podium with another strong finish in Sunday\u2019s Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio, successfully deploying a two-stop strategy to deliver Meyer Shank Racing\u2019s best-ever result at the team\u2019s home event.<\/strong>

Sporting a striking black and purple Ozzy Osbourne\/Black Sabbath livery, Rosenqvist battled back from 15th on the grid after running into traffic that derailed his qualifying attempt on Saturday, showcasing strong race craft throughout round ten of the NTT INDYCAR SERIES.
\u00a0
Rosenqvist joined race winner Scott Dixon as the only two drivers in the top eight to make just two fuel stops in completing 90 laps around the 2.258-mile Mid-Ohio layout, earning a sixth-place finish after fending off three-stopping team-mate Marcus Armstrong over the final tours.
\u00a0
With P6 and P7, the race marked another important success for Meyer Shank Racing as the team \u2013 based less than 60 miles from the Lexington track \u2013 sealed its best-ever result at its home event. It follows the squad\u2019s outright best-ever two-car result scored in the previous race at Road America, where both cars finished in the top five.

“It\u2019s another strong race for us and it\u2019s great to execute something like that at the team\u2019s home event,\u201d\u00a0says Felix Rosenqvist<\/strong>. \u201dThe car was really good on the blacks (hard tyres) today. We weren’t really great on the reds (soft), but we got through that stint, lost a little bit, but kept in contention.\u00a0<\/em>
\u00a0
\u201dWe managed to execute a two-stopper on a day where it was pretty hard to do. It’s a big fuel save. Luckily, the guys on the pit wall put us in a great gap and we managed to have a lot of clean air, and I think that was key. It’s a good comeback. We had a really poor qualifying yesterday and I think the top ten was the goal today, so we definitely made that work.”<\/em>
\u00a0
Rosenqvist now sits sixth in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES standings heading into the sole double-header event of the campaign next weekend at Iowa Speedway (July 12-13).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
