He started from pole at Road America in 2017, finishing third after leading 17 laps.<br \/>\nMSR has had strong qualifying efforts at Elkhart Lake, earning top-three starting positions with Jack Harvey in 2020 and 2021 and had a top-10 session result with Simon Pagenaud in \u201922, but the Ohio-based squad has yet to earn a top-10 finish at Road America in its previous eight starts.<br \/>\nRosenqvist will look to break that streak as the Swedish veteran has three top-10 race results in his five previous starts, including a 2020 victory that saw him come from seventh on the starting grid to take the win.

Road America has been kind to me and we have a lot of things to be excited for going into the second half of the season. It\u2019s been a few years since I got a win at Road America and with the moment that myself and MSR have had so far this season, I don\u2019t see why we can\u2019t aim for the same this weekend.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Helio Castroneves:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI\u2019m excited to get back in the drivers seat at Road America which is such a great track and one that I have enjoyed racing on.
