Kyle Kaiser was third-fastest in the session with a best lap of 226.197 mph in his first appearance back on the track after wrecking his primary car during practice on Friday.
Kaiser’s Juncos Racing crew worked late into the night preparing their backup car, so Kaiser would be ready to make a qualifying run this afternoon.
Ben Hanley (225.866 mph) was fourth-fastest in the session, followed by Patricio O’Ward (225.507 mph) and Max Chilton (212.974 mph).
