After becoming the youngest race winner at COTA earlier this year, Colton Herta has became the youngest pole winner in IndyCar history when he topped qualifying for the Grand Prix at Road America.

At 19 years, 83 days, Herta broke the mark of 20 years and 90 days set by Graham Rahal in 2009 at St. Petersburg. Indycar put out this tweet:
