Throughout the years, Rahal has had three top-five finishes and four top-10 finishes, but he has not been able to qualify well. During his 2023 outing at the Oval, he failed to qualify but got a second chance after Stefan Wilson had to step down due to an injury.

As for this year, the Ohio native seems to be safe from the relegation zone during the open test and both the practice sessions combined. While in conversation with Tony Donohue, Graham Rahal spoke about Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing's chances at the Indy 500.

"I thought we just had a little bit more speed in general, which frankly, we haven't had in a while. So that was the one thing that I take the most positivity out of it, but we are still on day one really. We'll see as the week goes on where we're at, and we'll see as the week goes on where Honda's at. That's really important for us," he said (via Tony Donohue on X).

"It seemed at the test that things were coming a little easier, lap times were coming a little easier... Last year, it would have taken perfection to try to do that, so just a little bit of a different animal," he added.

The American driver is yet to bag a win at the Oval.
