Harvey Leads SPM Sweep of Indy Lights Freedom 100

Schmidt Peterson Motorsports takes the top four positions in the first Indy Lights race at Indy with Mazda power.

Englishman Jack Harvey has been too often the bridesmaid in his year and a half of competition in Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires, but he was out in front when it mattered in the Freedom 100 Presented by Allied Building Products at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The race was held in glorious weather conditions in front of a sizable Coors Light Carb Day crowd on Friday, part of the build-up toward Sunday's 99th running of the Indianapolis 500.

Schmidt Peterson Motorsports with Curb-Agajanian teammates Ethan Ringel, Scott Anderson and RC Enerson completed a sweep of the top four positions as the race finished under caution after series points leader Ed Jones (Carlin) crashed out of seventh place in Turn 4 with just three laps remaining – the only caution of the race. That perhaps robbed fans of the exciting too-close-to-call finishes of the past two years at Indy.
