I got impeded by another car on the first run. But, with P7 we can do some good stuff tomorrow. I feel like Meyer Shank Racing really has the car hooked up so let\u2019s go for gold.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Felix Rosenqvist:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cIt was a good recovery from practice. I had a good Q1, I had a little bit of a messy Q2 with traffic on our out lap and then traffic on my second lap, so not ideal. We are overall pretty good on the red tires, and on the black we are hopefully good in the long run.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thermal, Calif.
