IndyCar parc ferme rules force setup compromises at Iowa

This weekend sees IndyCar’s return to Iowa Speedway for the Hy-Vee IndyCar Race Weekend after a one-year hiatus, and the 0.894-mile oval in Newton, IA. is unique on the schedule for hosting the series’ only double-header event.

Qualifying will be held on Saturday morning and, as per all oval events bar the Indy 500, each car’s qualifying run will consist of two consecutive flying laps. However, like oval double-headers since 2020, the first lap determines grid order for Race 1 and the second lap determines grid order for Race 2.
