There’s a hole in Newgarden’s career: He hasn’t won the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach, one of the most prominent races in the IndyCar season.
Qualifying for this year’s race is Saturday, and Newgarden said his No. 2 Chevrolet-powered car can’t start deep in the field again if he hopes to reach victory lane.He’ll have his hands full with veterans Dixon and Ryan Hunter-Reay, based on the two practice sessions Friday.
“It’s a good first day, we definitely learned a lot,” said Hunter-Reay, an Andretti Autosport driver who won the Long Beach race in 2010 and the series title in 2012. “Here at Long Beach we’ve always been very competitive.”“The car feels like it’s in the window,” he said, but added: “There are so many good car and driver combinations.”
Rossi won from the pole position a year ago, and a reporter asked him to weigh the importance of starting first at Long Beach.
