IndyCar has announced a change to the qualifying format for next weekend’s inaugural Java House Grand Prix of Arlington.
The traditional “knockout” style for Segments 1 and 2 remain unaltered, but being introduced at the 2.73-mile temporary street circuit is a new format for the Firestone Fast Six. Now, the fight for pole will see the Fast Six go out on single-car, single-lap qualifying runs, beginning with the sixth-fastest qualifier in Segment 2 and working toward the fastest from the previous round.
