If you are going to compete in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, it helps if you have a bit of will power.
It doesn't hurt if that's your name, either.
Power, 38, continued to treat the St. Petersburg course as if it were his own driveway Saturday, winning his eighth pole position in 10 tries to highlight the qualifying. Power has won the race twice.
That last run, the car felt really good,” Power said. “I have to say it was a very neat lap and I didn’t really leave anything on the table.
“Honestly, I didn’t expect to be on pole because we had used (Firestone alternate) tires,” he added about the Firestone Fast Six. “We didn’t have new (alternate tires) like a couple of the other guys so, over the moon, man, over the moon to start on pole. I really am happy.”
