Rain once again spoiled the party at Indy, as only a thirty-minute teaser of IndyCar Series action was on tap for the loyal fans who turned out on a gray, misty downer of a day at the Speedway.

Noon EDT start came and went, as did multiple resets of the planned six-hour session ahead of Saturday’s second, and final, weekend of qualifying for the Indianapolis 500.  A small window of opportunity appeared at approximately 4:45 PM and the cars rolled onto the track for a period of rolling yellow followed by the green flag at 5:15 PM.
