However, the driver and team that surprised many were Alex Tagliani and FAZZT Racing, who ended the session an impressive fifth. For a new team, such as this one, which hadn't participated in any group tests, running in the top five was a very nice accomplishment.
Also of note, three Andretti Autosport drivers (Tony Kanaan, Ryan Hunter-Reay, and Marco Andretti) ranked in the top seven, while Danica Patrick ended up 14th. Dario Franchitti failed to match the pace of his teammate, languishing back in 11th. Once again, Simona de Silvestro bested Danica Patrick (13th to 14th), after being the quicker of IndyCar's ladies back at Barber.
Qualifying rolls off at 1:30 (ET).
