Monday we'll be focused on points," said Kirkwood.
Santino Ferrucci of A. J.
Foyt Enterprises will make his 100th career IndyCar start on Sunday. He launches from the fifth position after seven consecutive career top-10 finishes at Indianapolis.
"That would be quite the day," said Ferrucci. He remains confident in his crew.
"Honestly, I think Sunday, we have a great car, we have a great crew, there's no reason as to why we won't be there," said Ferrucci.
Final Preparations
During Friday's Carb Day practice session, several Arrow McLaren drivers evaluated their cars under race-trim conditions before rain altered the afternoon schedule.
"I'm happy that we got our running in today. The rain stayed away, at least for practice.
We're getting the car better and better each time we're out, and I think we've got it in the right window where we can keep working on it throughout the race.
It's a long, long day. We've just got to keep making it better," said O'Ward.
Teammate Nolan Siegel finished 25th in the final practice session but remained optimistic about his pit crew. "Final practice done.
The car was feeling good on Monday but that didn't translate into today's running which is frustrating. However, there are still some positives to take away.
I think we're in position to move forward, and we'll keep dialing it in during the race.
It was also good to get some pit stops in this morning, too.
Our crew, including the addition of the LEGACY crew members we've had with us this May, looked super fast today and at the Pit Stop Challenge.
