This is the third time this year that Brittany Force has started from the top half of the field. This is Terry McMillen's fourth trip to Indy and his third start. This is the first time they have faced each other in eliminations. Force left first and led past the 660-foot marker, but her engine let go at that point and McMillen was close enough to take advantage of the situation. The engine damage left oil on the track and that will cost Force 20 points (she lost 5 yesterday for an oildown during qualifying), leaving her with a net gain of just 15 points for the event. Terry McMillen's incremental margins (negative if behind): 60ft(-0.015), 330 ft(-0.033), 660ft(-0.008). MOV: 0.0474 seconds (approximately 19 feet). McMillen faces Langdon in round two, Langdon has lane choice. |
