12) Christian Lundgaard 225.497 mph
26) Jack Harvey 223.190 mph

GRAHAM RAHAL, No. 15 United Rentals Dallara/Honda/Firestone: “The goal was to get the car in a better window and try to gain some competitiveness but the setup we had on Monday may be better. We’ve got to dig deep here in the next day. You don’t want to make big changes and go into the race flying blind but we will work on it. We’re going to have to execute flawlessly on Sunday.”
CHRISTIAN LUNDGAARD, No. 30 PeopleReady Dallara/Honda/Firestone: “Carb day done, next session will be race day! Looking at the timings it isn’t so bad, but I think kind of feeling wise I am no where near where I want to be. It’s going to be a fun Sunday, we know the conditions won’t be the same as it’s been today, it’s very humid today, cloudy. Sunday, race day will be warm and sunny so I am just looking forward to race day and seeing where we are at, there’s only one way to go – can’t get much worse so moving forward.”
JACK HARVEY, 45 Hy-Vee Dallara/Honda/Firestone: “We have a little bit of work to do before the race but we’re working hard. We are going to try and have an opportunistic strategy, have good pitstops and everything through the day. Anything is possible in this race; that’s one thing I have learned about the Indy 500. We have a shot because we’re in the race.”
