IRL: ’slow’ Lloyd is fastest rookie on day two

From IndyCars’ official YouTube channel comes this brief interview with Alex Lloyd, who went fastest on day two of the Indy 500 rookie orientation.

Lloyd, a development driver with Chip Ganassi Racing, will compete for Rahal Letterman in the big race. He said he’d taken the session “nice and slow” - but he still set a speed of 223.033mph, the fastest of the day.

Pole speed for the race is likely to be nearer 230mph.
