INDIANAPOLIS — Alex Palou has earned the NTT P1 Award for the Sonsio Grand Prix.
According to an IndyCar news release, Palou won his second pole of the year and his second consecutive pole while racing in the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda. He took the final spot with his last lap of one minute, 9.3417 seconds.
“We had a bit of an advantage there with a set of new soft tires,” Palou said. “I think some people used them in Q1 (first round of qualifying), and we didn’t. Maybe that’s where the time comes. But that No. 10 DHL car was amazing. Super-fast. It’s been super-fast all season, honestly, but today it’s been on fire.”
IndyCar said this was Palou’s eighth pole of his career. The complete schedule for this weekend’s Sonsio Grand Prix can be viewed online here.
