Will Power finished the IndyCar open test at Barber Motorsports Park on top after once again setting the best lap in Wednesday’s afternoon session.

Penske driver Power, who was quickest across both days of the test, secured his place on top with a best lap of 1m07.1329s, 0.2 seconds faster than nearest rival James Hinchcliffe of Andretti Autosport.

Justin Wilson delivered the third-quickest time in the Honda-powered Dale Coyne car, while Tony Kanaan’s 1m07.5478s lap from the morning session was enough to keep him fourth overall in the combined times.

Reigning champion Ryan Hunter-Reay, Scott Dixon, Takuma Sato, Charlie Kimball, Helio Castroneves and Simon Pagenaud completed the top 10, with all but Hunter-Reay setting their best times in the afternoon.

The session was punctuated by a late incident when Ed Carpenter went off and hit the barriers. The series’ only owner-driver was unhurt and managed to get his car back to the pits.

AJ Allmendinger, driving the third Penske car that he will race at the Alabama circuit and the Indianapolis 500, finished up 18th overall.

2007 McLaren AUTOSPORT BRDC Award winner Stefan Wilson registered the 28th-best time in the second Coyne car after taking over from Ana Beatriz for the afternoon session.
