BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Spencer Pigot and Jack Harvey finished 1-2 in both rounds of the Legacy Indy Lights 100 at Barber Motorsports Park.
Pigot, 21, from Orlando, Fla., started from the pole in the first race and went on to win the 30-lap race by 6.7109 seconds on the 2.3-mile, 17-turn road course. In the 35-lap second race, Pigot cruised to a 5.9781-second victory over last year's Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires championship runner-up.
Pigot, after twice finishing second in the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda and then winning last year’s Pro Mazda Championship Presented by Cooper Tires, claimed his first two victories of the season in the No. 12 Juncos Racing car. He finished third in his first two Indy Lights starts at St. Petersburg, Fla., then charged to second place on April 19 on the streets of Long Beach, Calif.
"This is a track I enjoy; I’ve had a lot of success here, as has the team," Pigot said. "It’s very satisfying to be up here with these other guys who have won championships all over the world. We’re really competing against top-quality competition, which makes this all the more satisfying.
"It's been an amazing weekend. We got the car sorted out very quickly out of the trailer on Friday and the car has been fantastic all three days. It's great to have your first wins under your belt; you know you can do it now but it also adds pressure on you and your team. Everyone at Juncos has been working so hard this weekend, I'm glad I was able to deliver.”
Harvey's Schmidt Peterson Motorsports with Curb-Agajanian teammate, RC Enerson, earned his first podium finish in the opener. Carlin driver Max Chilton claimed third place in the second race.
