A short qualifying session, with only one round raced is a surprise to see Mike Conway in the first place. The first group, we had a red flag caused by Alex Tagliani, and the final minutes were not disputed. Until then, the fastest James Jakes was followed by Ryan Hunter-Reay and EJ Viso, the pole sitter for the first race. The second meeting of the group was held without notable incident, and Conway has the best time in the afternoon.
The overall results are made with the pilots who were to group the fastest occupying the odd positions remaining in the order they left the group and the other group of riders occupy the couples. It is therefore the starting grid for the second race, which starts today at 21:30:
