The 23-year-old Dutchman, who was expected to be a strong contender for pole position this weekend, was the fourth of 34 drivers to go out and attack Indianapolis Motorsport Speedway’s fastest four laps, over 10 miles, of the season.
VeeKay – who was just 0.004s and 0.006mph away from Alex Palou’s pole-winning four-lap average last year – made his maiden 2024 qualifying run directly after the No. 8 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda of IndyCar Series rookie Kyffin Simpson.
