Newgarden leads Chevy 1-2-3-4-5 in Phoenix practice

Josef Newgarden

Penske Chevy driver Josef Newgarden turned a lap of over 192 mph to lead practice for the Phoenix IndyCar race which will be run Saturday evening.

JR Hildebrand was 2nd quick just 0.0427sec with Helio Castroneves, Simon Pagenaud and Will Power making it a Chevy 1-2-3-4-5. This was expected as Chevy cars are not towing a parachute around the track like the Hondas.

This looks like a long weekend for Honda right now.
