In Segment One of qualifying, each group receives 15 minutes of track time. The fastest six cars from each group advance to Segment Two, while the remaining cars are assigned positions 13-24. Group One drivers will occupy the odd-numbered positions (13, 15, 17...) while Group Two drivers will occupy the even-numbered positions (14, 16, 18...) based on their fastest lap times.
It was a disappointing race for the Formula Dream / Panasonic team. We had moved up as high as sixth and when I was in seventh I went into the marbles in Turn 3 and couldn't turn the car and many cars passed me while I was sliding everywhere. Then I almost hit Vitor, who was fighting with another car. Vitor slowed so I had to brake harder and lost the back end and had nowhere to go. They were my mistakes. We have to move on and focus on having a good weekend in St. Pete.
5 – Different leaders, including rookie Simona De Silvestro, who became the first driver since Graham Rahal to lead while in an IZOD IndyCar Series debut race.
It's obviously dusty, I think if you have any common sense, you're not going to stay flat-out if you can't see the car ahead of you. I don't know, I got hit from behind.
