2011 Indianapolis 500 Day 7 Top Ten

Day Seven, a.k.a. “Fast Friday”, of the 2011 Indianapolis 500 practice at Indianapolis Motor Speedway was another excellent one, and our third full day of practice which turned in the fastest laps of the year yet.

Six drivers were aver 228 mph and twelve drivers were over 227 mph, so if track conditions are right, my guess is still that the pole could very well be in the 227 – 228 mph range.

Led by Will Power, here’s the complete top ten run down for the day.

1. No. 3 – Helio Castroneves @ 228.611 mph
2. No. 77 – Alex Tagliani @ 228.327 mph
3. No.9 – Scott Dixon @ 228.181 mph
4. No.6 – Ryan Briscoe @ 228.029 mph
5. No. 30 – Bertrand Baguette @ 228.028 mph
6. No.67 – Ed Carpenter @ 228.017 mph
7. No. 12 – Will Power @ 227.958 mph
8. No. 99 – Townsend Bell @ 227.927 mph
9. No. 2 – Oriol Servia @ 227.580 mph
10. No. 98 – Dan Wheldon @ 227.463 mph
