How cold did it get in Texas? Too frigid for IndyCar test laps at TMS in Fort Worth

Several IndyCar drivers, including Jimmie Johnson and Scott Dixon, had to cancel test runs at Texas Motor Speedway on Monday because it was too cold.

For safety reasons, test laps were called off. Teams from Penske and Ed Carpenter Racing might try to return for a test on Thursday.

Johnson, of Ganassi Racing, will be making his INDYCAR oval track debut at TMS on March 20 in the XPEL 375. His teammate, six-time INDYCAR champion Dixon was a little frustrated with the weather. Temperatures were in the 30s Monday morning, making the track too dangerous for test laps.
