  • Amid difficult conditions with high heat and strong winds, Larson's Arrow McLaren vehicle slid off course, striking the wall twice during a qualifying run simulation.
  • Larson said he was "kind of caught off guard a little bit" but believes the damage is minor and the team completed repairs in about an hour to prepare for qualifying.
  • Larson will prepare with a practice session on Saturday morning before qualifying as he aims to accomplish the rare feat of competing in both the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's major open-wheel race and NASCAR's longest event on the same day.
