Blog #454-Indy Car at Road America 2024-Part 1

Published in Blog

July 15, 2024

The annual Road America visit for Indy Car this past year was a memorable one with rookie Linus Lundqvist grabbing the pole position for the first of his career!

This blog is just part 1 of a few blogs to come on the Indy Car drivers as it was an amazing weekend of rain and fun.

Saturday, June 8th was qualifying day and it did not disappoint. The rain made it very exciting.

The rookie drivers were showing up strong but the final six drivers going for the pole position in the Firestone Fast 6 qualifying session came down to the following drivers who then qualified in this order.

Linus Lundqvist

Colton Herta

Marcus Armstrong

Kyle Kirkwood

Will Power

Josef Newgarden

It was a bad day for my man Scott Dixon qualifying 10th as was the race the next day where he finished 21st.

Will Power won the race and that was long overdue for him on Sunday.

Here are some qualifying photos and be sure to look how the Indy Car rain tires move that rain!! Also I got a few glowing brake photos here.

Race photos coming up in the next blog.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann

About Rich Zimmermann

Rich Zimmermann is an internationally collected photographer based in Milwaukee,Wisconsin.

Since 1971, I have photographed the Milwaukee area music scene. In addition to that, I have photographed many weddings and done many portraits. Some of my favorite portraiture has been that of Indy car drivers in pit lane and on the grid at racetracks around Wisconsin. The excitement and adrenaline rush I get photographing on pit lane is equivalent to the fun and excitement of photographing musicians on stage or backstage!
