"We’re moving in one direction, which is the right way"
Rain showers once again kicked off the day at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, pushing Team Principal Tony Kanaan's refresher session back another day. The four racers projected to start the race for Arrow McLaren, however, did get a long afternoon of running in.
While Pato, Nolan, Christian and Kyle weren't atop the timing charts, they each worked through their respective programs and left the day knowing what they want to work on tomorrow.
The Arrow McLaren IndyCar Team will be on track again tomorrow, starting with a refresher session for Tony at 10:00 a.m. EDT and followed by full-field Practice at noon EDT on FS2.

“I’m glad we were able to get some race runs today compared to yesterday. That’s really what I wanted to focus on mainly today. We were able to try running in the front of the pack and the middle and get an idea for the balance especially with the cars we were running around.”

“We had a solid day two. We’re happy with the balance and have made some small gains, chipping away at that. We’re working our way into traffic and that changed the balance quite a bit. We still have a bit to find there, but overall it’s still comfortable. The main thing is having a smooth few days into Qualifying and we’ll continue finding more speed every day.”

“It was a good second day from where we left off. We’re moving in one direction, which is the right way. We’re leaving Wednesday as happy as Tuesday, which is a step up compared to the Open Test. There’s a lot of momentum being built. The No. 7 VELO Arrow McLaren Chevrolet is great running out front. There’s more work to be done deeper in the traffic, but there’s a simple way to do that by qualifying and racing up front. Looking at it realistically, we need to work on getting the car better deeper into the pack and we should be in pretty good shape."
