The Honda-powered car was driven by Chip Ganassi Racing’s six-time IndyCar champion, Scott Dixon, while Team Penske’s two-time champion Josef Newgarden drove the Chevrolet machine. Chevy driving duties are expected to be taken over by Will Power as testing continues tomorrow.
Today’s test was conducted on a 15-turn 2.6-mile version of the road course that uses the "inner loop" at Turn 5. This sends the cars around to the right, followed by a left-horseshoe before they rejoin the back straight, in order to reduce any advantage that could have been garnered by either team involved.
