Patrick was driving very well in practice and the car seemed dialed in. Unfortunately, Pat got just a bit too aggressive on his first qualifying run and hit the wall making the transition after the second inner clip. The team got the car back on track for a second qualifying run but not all the damage was fixed and Pat was not able to pull off a high enough score. Pat and his team definitely looking to finish strong at Round 7 in Irwindale.
