. L_Lundqvist76 dominates IndyLights in Nashville for HMDMotorsports
The grid was lined up in championship order due to lightning causing cancelation of qualifying. Linus Lundqvist of HMD Motorsport easily held onto his advantage at the start, but Hunter McElrea wouldn’t let him go, and his teammates Sting Ray Robb and Matt Brabham stuck with him in the opening laps. Benjamin Pedersen was gradually dropped back in the Global Racing Group/HMD car in fifth.
It took until Lap 11 for Lundqvist to pull a one-second margin over McElrea, perhaps having conserved his Cooper Tires in the opening laps on this rough surface and when McElrea closed that down with his fastest lap, next time by Lundqvist responded on Lap 13. Brabham suffered a nasty slide under braking at Turn 9 and had fallen 1.4sec off the back of Robb, but was a similar margin ahead of Pedersen, who was starting to feel pressure from Rasmussen.
With a dozen of the 35 laps left to go, Brabham was at the head of a train of cars comprising Pedersen, Rasmussen, Frost and Abel. The latter moved past Frost down the inside of Turn 9 on Lap 26.
