[Dark]

Bad news from Indianapolis. Fernando Alonso will not be in the 500-mile race on Sunday May 26 after not qualifying in the Last Row where there were three seats in play, for six drivers, who were missing to complete the grid. McLaren was not up to it and both the British team and the Spanish driver ended up paying him.

On Saturday Fernando Alonso was out of the top 30 in the classification tests of the legendary race. The Asturian driver, with problems in his McLaren Indy throughout the week, was pushed from position 30 to 31 in the last minute of Saturday's qualifying round by the pilot Graham Rahal, who in his last qualifying attempt got into the 30 fastest in 17th place.

The Spaniard achieved an average speed of 365.681 kilometers per hour in four consecutive laps, a few tenths behind the pilot Pippa Mann, who qualified in the 30th place.

During the play-off this Sunday and, after several hours of delay due to rain, finally the classification could be disputed, where the Spanish driver came out in third position, behind Hinchcliffe and Chilton and ahead of Karam, O'Ward and Kaiser . Ahead, an attempt by pilot in search of the last three places for the race.
Seeing the sensations of days ago and the previous warm-up, everything made foresee the worst for Alonso: the Spaniard marked the worst time of the five riders who came out to shoot.

The Spaniard, who averaged 365.469 kilometers per hour in the four laps he gave the Motor Speedway, had to wait until the last minute to see if he could qualify. Kaiser came out in last position knowing that he or Alonso was out. Finally the Spanish driver was overcome and said goodbye to the dream of the Indianapolis 500.

The American Sage Karam - who averaged 366,512 kilometers per hour in four laps - won the race to pass, the Canadian James Hinchcliffe (366,195) and the American Kyle Kaiser (365,920).
