. smclaughlin93 'pumped' despite missing out on pole for IndyCar's Honda200 at Mid_Ohio
The former Supercars ace started off his second season in the IndyCar Series with a pole and victory at St. Petersburg, but today’s performance around the 2.238-mile track in Lexington, OH. was his strongest qualifying result on a road course. He finished the session 0.1324sec adrift of IndyCar’s ninth different pole-winner in nine races, Pato O’Ward of Arrow McLaren SP-Chevrolet.
Regarding his final flyer on the softer alternate tires in the Firestone Fast Six, McLaughlin said there were two areas he recognized cost him a bit of time. One was Turn 12, which serves as Turn 1 for qualifying, before the timing line is moved to the start/finish line overnight, and Turn 2, the 180 degree Keyhole hairpin.
“To do a 66.8 was good, and then Pato's 66.7, so it shows how much the track evolved. Anyway, I deliberately told the guys, ‘Don't tell me the time that I'm chasing; just let me drive.’ That sort of worked out well.”
