IndyCar: 2024 Milwaukee qualifying updates, full starting lineup

A few years ago, the idea of an IndyCar return to the Milwaukee Mile would have been laughed at before being completely written off. Now the series is set for not one but two races at the iconic West Allis, Wisconsin venue it has not visited since 2015.

With two races scheduled to be contested at the four-turn, 1.015-mile (1.633-kilometer) Wisconsin State Fair Park venue this weekend, the traditional two-lap, single-car qualifying format is set to be used.

Lap one speeds are set to determine the starting lineup for the first race of the Hy-Vee Milwaukee Mile 250, and lap two speeds are set to determine the starting lineup for the second. Both races are scheduled to be 250-lap events.

Just four drivers who competed in the most recent IndyCar event at the track nine years ago are set to be in action this weekend. Reigning race winner Sebastien Bourdais is not among them, though 2014 winner Will Power is. The other three are Graham Rahal, Josef Newgarden, and Scott Dixon.
