🗣 'It was like super-fast, maybe way too fast' 😲 Indy500 pacesetter TakumaSatoRacer says it's key that his team doesn't 'overshoot' on trimming out its qualifying setup 👇
Sato lit up the overall speed charts on Friday with a single lap of 234.753mph, before almost brushing the wall at Turn 2 and abandoning his four-lap qualifying simulation.
"When I saw it the first time I crossed the line, it was like super-fast, maybe way too fast," he said of his lairy opening run."But I wanted to see how the car developed. "Even the Ganassi camp can't be perfectly correct all the time. You have to overshoot – you don't have to – but if you overshoot, then you correct it. It's to get the balance right over the four laps."went to the head of the four-lap speeds, the Ganassi cars seemed to struggle for consistency.
"In [my] Rahal days, we had a low speed, unfortunately. But we went to [be] super consistent. That brought us in the front row.When asked about his near miss with the wall, he admitted:"I saw it afterwards how close it was. It was a bit scary.
