Fernando Alonso is prepared for what he expects will be "the most horrible laps" of his career as he takes part in qualifying for the Indy 500 this weekend.
After five days of practice, the Spaniard will attempt to qualify for the May 28 event this weekend. The Spaniard will do so in a McLaren-Andretti Autosport entry powered by Honda.
The final of those five days of practice is Friday, dubbed 'Fast Friday' because it sees teams run their cars in qualifying trim. Despite running competitively on the oval this week, finishing fourth on Wednesday and Thursday, the Spaniard expects a big challenge when every lap counts.
