For the third time in three years, the all-time pole record falls at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway!

It’s almost that time again – The 108th Running of the Indy 500 is right around the corner, and Dre Harrison and RJ O’Connell is joined by a guest, Chris DeHarde of Frontstretch.com joins the gang to preview the big race and breakdown all the stories coming out of Qualifying weekend.

Scott McLaughlin made history with a 234.220mph run to narrowly break Palou’s 2023 record but also take the pole in a Penske front rock lockout with Power and Newgarden close behind. What has led to such a remarkable Penske turnaround, having not had a Top 10 Qualifier since 2019!

There’s also the glum story of a horrible Bump Day for Katherine Legge, Graham Rahal, Marcus Ericsson and the bumped man Nolan Siegel, all with horror stories to share about how they got there in the first place. Plus a full grid rundown and the threat of rain all covered in another edition of Motorsport101!
