Written by Scott Keller · April 14, 2007
Will Power is showing that his strong win in Las Vegas wasn’t a fluke, and guaranteed a front row starting position for Sunday’s race. Tomorrow’s final qualifying session will determine the final line-up and reveal the other front row starter.
Sebastian Bourdais bounced back strong to qualify second in the session, only falling 50/1000ths of a second short of Power’s time. With Simon Pagenaudt qualifying third, Team Australia is putting the whole series on notice that they are for real.
