Indianapolis 500 Practice Day 3

Wednesday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway could be summed up with one word. Windy.

Team Penske announced around 2:30 that their 5 car stable would not turn laps at speed in the 6-hour session due to wind. Many other teams followed suit.

On the day 405 laps were turned by 21 drivers. Many of those laps weren't at speed, as teams are allowed to practice hot pit stops from 2-4 each day. For comparison, 1,306 and 2,404 laps were turned the first two days of practice.
