Dixon, Bourdais quickest in final practices

The Verizon Indycar series kicked off The Official 1st and 2nd sessions of Grand Prix practice Thursday morning. Practice sessions ran for 45 minutes each and drivers took any where from 11 to 22 laps around the 2.434 mile, 14 turn course.

There was much doubt about the track being ready in time for the race this Saturday. Although some spots around the track are ugly, we’re ready to go racing.

Sebastian Bourdais lead practice #1 with a best time of 1:10.5150. “We made a lot of progress and learned some things” said the Frenchman Thursday after his run.

Meanwhile, Scott Dixon lead practice #2 with a time of 1:10.4654. “The cars are on knifes edge. The straights are so long that I think we’ve only seen at Brazil” Said Dixon, who has two top-5 finishes in the three races so far this year, both coming on road courses.

If you’d like to see the rest of the times from each respective driver, I have attached session times for both practices. (Courtesy Indycar.com)
