Team Penske’s Josef Newgarden admits he has “a lot of work to do” in Saturday’s IndyCar Series race on the Indianapolis Road Course having taken a six-place grid penalty.This year’s Indy 500 winner suffered a disastrous qualifying session on Friday, failing to progress from Q1, and was scheduled to start the race from 19th on the grid.
But IndyCar revealed on Saturday morning that Newgarden has taken a fifth engine, which is classed as an unapproved engine change and will instead start from 25th on the grid. He begins the day 84 points behind series dominator Alex Palou, and knows he is running out of races to close the deficit. “We have a lot of work to do,” said Newgarden. “You just never know how these things turn out, so you just hope for a good, clean day.
“It seemed a little bit better [in final practice], probably closer to where we needed to be, which is great.
