In an adrenaline-pumping return to action, the NTT IndyCar Series roared back onto the scene at the iconic Long Beach street course in California. The racetrack, also shared with IMSA for the weekend, witnessed intense practice sessions that set the stage on fire.

Team Penske initially dominated the track, but it was Alex Palou from Chip Ganassi Racing who stole the spotlight by clocking impressive lap times. However, the Penske powerhouse, led by Will Power, clawed their way back to the top with sheer determination and the strategic use of Firestone tires.

Power blazed through the track, setting the fastest lap time of 1:07.3227, leaving his competitors in the dust. Following closely behind were Marcus Ericsson, Kyle Kirkwood, Marcus Armstrong, and Josef Newgarden, showcasing a fierce battle for the top positions.

The session was not without its share of heart-stopping moments, with Pato O’Ward’s run-in with the concrete barriers causing chaos. Despite the setbacks, O’Ward’s resilience shone through as repairs were swiftly made, allowing him to get back on track, albeit with limited laps under his belt.

As the drivers pushed themselves to the limit, some flirted dangerously with disaster, spinning out and needing assistance to get back on course. The high-octane action kept fans on the edge of their seats, with each twist and turn adding to the thrill of the practice session.

With the stage set for an electrifying weekend of racing, drivers gear up for more intense practice sessions and the all-important qualifying rounds. The Long Beach street course promises to be a battleground where only the best will emerge victorious, leaving spectators eager for more heart-stopping action.

Stay tuned as the NTT IndyCar Series unfolds its drama-filled chapters at Long Beach, promising a spectacle of speed, skill, and adrenaline-fueled excitement.
