TEAM CHEVY DRIVER QUALIFYING – POLE WINNER’S QUOTE
JULY 29, 2017

WILL POWER, NO. 12 VERIZON TEAM PENSKE CHEVROLET, won the pole for the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio. It is his third pole at the track, and the 49th of his Verizon IndyCar Series career:

“It is definitely a good position to start around here because it is so hard to pass. Obviously we took a bit of a hit in the points there at Toronto so very stoked for this pole. It’s been a tough weekend to get the car right; get the balance right. This is good.

“It is so tight in this series. You can’t make a mistake. That is what I had in my mind is that I just had to get through each round and then get to the Fast Six and see what happens. That is what we did, just try to be mistake free.

“We’ve been working on a win here at Mid-Ohio for a long time, and by getting pole, we definitely put ourselves in a good position.”
