Via RACER.com
Chip Ganassi Racing-Chevrolet driver Charlie Kimball clocked the only 221mph lap of morning practice at Pocono Raceway to earn himself P1, almost 0.6mph ahead of one of the track’s more local heroes – teammate Sage Karam.
Kimball lapped the famous tri-oval in 40.6554 seconds, equating to a 221.373mph average, to go 0.6mph clear of Karam. The younger American took full benefit of the rookie/part-timer hour of track action that preceded practice to clock 83 laps overall and complete a Ganassi 1-2.
Simon Pagenaud headed the Penske quartet with third fastest just a tick ahead of his championship-leading teammate Juan Montoya, while Takuma Sato (AJ Foyt Racing) and Marco Andretti (Andretti Autosport) were top Hondas in fifth and sixth.
