I had a little miss in turn nine, but honestly, I\u00a0don&#8217;t think I would have placed it higher if I had put it all together. It was kind of what we had, I&#8217;m happy, we transferred to the Firestone Fast Six, and then we gained another two spots. So I\u2019m pretty happy with that. We definitely didn&#8217;t have the pace of Kirkwood today, he was half a second in front, so I\u2019m bummed and excited at the same time I think we&#8217;re in a pretty good spot for tomorrow.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Marcus Armstrong:<\/strong>\u00a0&#8220;The car was strong today. We had a good car, especially in Q2 but I just missed out by the skin of our teeth. Great job all around from Meyer Shank Racing, Felix as well. We have had a great qualifying record this year with both cars, so that\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2024 Long Beach pole winner Rosenqvist qualifies fourth while Armstrong qualifies seventh Long Beach, Calif.
