Andretti faces rain risk at Indianapolis 500 qualifying
Mario Andretti warned he may need a substitute to qualify his car if rain continues. The 203.482 mph Penske run Friday raised hopes for the pole, but thunderstorms halted qualifying and weather forecasts predict more showers. If someone else qualifies, he could race but would start 33rd, a marked handicap. Chief steward Binford closed the track at 3:15 p.m. as drivers awaited better weather.
