Lindberg had to make the jump as a replacement for American star driver Bob Tasca III, who had fallen ill in covid-19.
After qualifying in second place, Lindberg put the competition's third best time in the eighth finals.
In the quarterfinals, the fun ended against the table sex Tim Wilkerson after a hard-fought coward. Jonnie drove at 3.99 sec, reaching 513.3 km / h but Wilerson recorded 3.982 seconds and the day was over for Lindberg.
Matt Hagan won the competition. There are many indications that Lindberg will have another chance this coming weekend in Indianapolis.
