Jack Harvey qualifies second in all-Honda front row
Colton Herta prevailed in a typical fraught NTT INDYCAR SERIES qualifying, edging Jack Harvey by just two-tenths of a second to secure an all-Honda front row for Sunday's Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg.
Herta and Harvey were two of the seven Honda drivers to advance through the first round of INDYCAR “knockout” qualifying. Behind the lead pair, defending series champion Scott Dixon will start eighth in his Chip Ganassi Racing Honda, with Rahal Letterman Lanigan's Graham Rahal and Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama race winner Alex Palou rounding out the top 10 for Honda.
Andretti Autosport's Alexander Rossi and James Hinchcliffe also advanced to second-round qualifying, and will start 11th and 12th, respectively

Just had to get through those two [qualifying] stages nice and clean. Really happy for [my] guys. We've got the best seat in the house [pole] for the start, it's been an incredible weekend so far. Can't wait to get going again tomorrow."
