Briscoe grabs third for the Indy 500

Ryan Briscoe has qualified third for the Indy 500 behind Kiwi Scott Dixon on poll.

The first day of qualifying saw the top 11 spots decided. Fellow Aussie Will Power is yet to qualify.

“I had a really good run,� Briscoe said. “The car was balanced really well for the downforce level we trimmed out to, and it was a solid gain, for sure. We were on the edge, and it was exciting. I’m really happy to be in the thick of it. This is unbelievable.�
