A small pre-race grid shot thread.

@FRosenqvist starts on the pole for the second time at the @IMS road course. A podium finish here would help a long way for his quest to stay in the IndyCar world.

Starting third with his pre-race calisthenics is @PatricioOWard. He is the most recent IndyCar winner at Iowa and he has two @IndyPro2000 wins at the @IMS road course. Can today be win number three at IMS for the driver currently fifth in points?

After a hectic week, @josefnewgarden starts fifth after passing all medical protocols. The Tennessee native can really help his title chances by scoring his second win at the @IMS road course.

After qualifying fourth on debut here last year, @lundgaardoff qualified sixth this year after his @RLLracing crew went back through their notebook. He is the rookie points leader this year.

While there is a lot of off track drama surrounding where @AlexPalou will be next year, on the track he starts seventh with the shiniest car on the grid. Hope nobody has any flashbulbs going off near that car.

After scoring his first IndyCar win here in 2021, @rinusveekay is looking for another starting eighth. The Dutch racer has one win on this track in @IndyLights.

Noblesville, Indiana native @ConorDaly22 finished fifth here in May. He’s been quick here before and starts 10th.
