Christian Lundgaard's take ahead of Barber GP

While Christian Lundgaard is pulling off moves left, right, and centre in the ongoing 90-lap race, ahead of it, he shared his thoughts and asserted that if he managed to get off to a clean start, then he could move forward in the race.

In line with this, he added:

"I’m a little disappointed, I will say. We didn’t quite get the tires in the window for the push lap and went slower in Q2 than we did in Q1. I think there are a lot of positives to take from the weekend going into tomorrow’s race. As a team, we’re sixth, seventh and eighth. As long as we all make it through Lap 1, I believe we’ll all be okay and definitely have some opportunities to bring Arrow McLaren forward in the race." Lundgaard said via Arrow McLarn.

Lundgaard has been competing in America's highest class of open-wheel racing since 2021. He has so far amassed over 50 race starts and has managed to put on board a single Grand Prix win, five podium finishes, and two pole positions.

In the 2024 IndyCar season, he was on it as well. At the end of the 17-race campaign, he found himself in 11th place in the drivers' standings behind Alexander Rossi. Moreover, in the process of doing so, he secured 312 points alongside a top-five and six top-ten finishes.

In the ongoing Children's of Alabama Indy Grand Prix, Christian Lundgaard is running in second place and is looking all set for a well-deserved podium finish. Chip Ganassi Racing's Alex Plaou is in the lead of the race.
