A hard-fought day at Iowa Speedway for Race 2 of the doubleheader weekend.

Felix Rosenqvist led the Arrow McLaren IndyCar Team with a team-high finish of fourth after starting 16th.

Pato O'Ward started the race 11th, gained five positions in the opening two laps and climbed as high as third. Ultimately, he finished the race in 10th after battling handling issues late in the race.

Alexander Rossi started 18th, and quickly moved into the top 10 on the opening stint, but battled with handling woes as well and finished 15th.

Before we go to Nashville in a few weeks, see what each driver and Racing Director Gavin Ward said after racing in Iowa.

Felix Rosenqvist, Driver, No. 6 NTT DATA Arrow McLaren Chevrolet, said:

"Big thanks to Arrow McLaren and NTT DATA, just a phenomenal car, and congrats to Team Chevy on the win. We had a lot of speed here this weekend and a few mega stints to push from P16 to finishing P4.  We got through traffic pretty smoothly until we'd got held up by some lapped traffic. The restart didn't go that well, and then I was on the outside of Will Power and he pushed me up into the marbles. Anyways, big shoutout to the team. We were scratching our heads a bit after yesterday's race, so it was a hell of a turnaround."

Pato O'Ward, Driver, No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet, said:

"I don't have an explanation for what happened today. We obviously went the wrong way, at least that's what it seems like. The team is going to sit down and see what we missed in that transfer from yesterday. The pure fact that we didn't end up in an accident with ourselves or someone else feels like a win. I don't know. You come into these weekends knowing where you usually have been in the past and with a chance to be able to kind of bounce back, and, obviously, today it feels like we threw that away. I don't have an explanation for that, and I don't think any of us really know why. It felt like it was the right direction, and I'm just confused."

Alexander Rossi, Driver, No. 7 VELO Arrow McLaren Chevrolet, said:

"This was pretty much a lost weekend for us. With it being a doubleheader, double points, we needed to capitalize here, and it just didn’t happen. We were outside the window and just didn’t have the pace we needed to compete. We have a lot to look into before Nashville. We’re all hungry for more than what showed this weekend."

Gavin Ward, Racing Director, Arrow McLaren, said:

"Felix showed some speed here today, and he was right in the fight there until the end for the win. He got a little unlucky with the restart, and it didn't quite go our way, but it was a great result for the whole No. 6 NTT DATA Arrow McLaren Chevrolet crew. Pato was right up there for the first half of the race. Then, all of a sudden, seemed to struggle with the rear. We'll have to look into why. It seemed like Alexander's car went the same way, too, loose with the balance. Around here, that's pretty tough to handle, so he did a good job bringing it home in one piece."
