TL;DR Summary

Scott Dixon has admitted that his Indy 500 qualifying has been "compromised" after an engine swap. Dixon suffered an issue with his Honda V6 engine during Friday practice, and after installing a fresh engine from Honda's pool of motors, he returned to the track in Saturday morning's available half hour of running to run-in the new power unit. Dixon's team-mate Alex Palou also required a new motor but set the third-fastest time in Saturday practice, compared to Dixon's fifth-quickest lap, and remains confident of a good showing in qualifying later today.
