Slowly but surely Alvaro is getting more used to the Indianapolis circuit and subsequently he also moves further up the order and closes the gap to the front. He finished today’s warm up session 10th fastest, just over a second behind the fastest rider and seems to be constantly improving.
The weather conditions at Indy are warm and sunny, perfect for a great day of racing.
