NDIANAPOLIS -- Will Power brought back normalcy to Indianapolis on Friday.
Finally.
After a two-month race delay and a one-month hiatus between IndyCar's first two races, Power reclaimed his status as the favorite for Saturday's Indianapolis Grand Prix favorite by overtaking Jack Harvey in the final seconds of qualifying with a pole-winning run of 1 minute, 10.1779 seconds on the track's road course.
It took everything Power had to eek it out.
"I left nothing on the table on that lap," Power said. "I knew that Harvey had a pretty good time up there, so I put on my best set [of tires] for the final run and thankfully it was enough.
