. MarcusArmstrng already confident in 'very natural'-feeling IndyCar CGRTeams ThermalClub
The 22-year-old New Zealander ended the first day of official IndyCar testing in 10out of 27 runners. Around the re-measured 3.067-mile 17-turn Thermal Club track, Armstrong was just 0.5356sec off Colton Herta’s top time, 0.5107s behind Ganassi pacesetter, 2021 champion Alex Palou, and within three-tenths of six-time champion, teammate and fellow Kiwi Scott Dixon.
“At the beginning everyone waited a lot longer than what I was expecting. I think I was maybe the first one to go out and do a proper run. But straight away I felt confident with the car. Obviously my second day in an IndyCar, still learning the whole car, but this Ganassi car certainly gives me a lot of confidence. The way it moves is very natural, if that makes sense…
Asked how he would compare his driving style and data traces with his teammates, Armstrong observed, “That's a good question. Having watched Alex [Palou]'s onboard, he's quite smooth I think with his steering inputs.
