2025 Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach

Qualifying was held at 11:30 AM PT on April 12, 2025. Kyle Kirkwood qualified on pole position for the race, while his Andretti Global teammate Colton Herta qualified second. Championship leader Álex Palou qualified in third. A number of drivers suffered incidents during qualifying. The most significant incident came at the end of the Fast 12 session, when Christian Lundgaard slid wide at turn 9 and impacted the tire barriers. The incident brought out a red flag in the session, which, by IndyCar rules, forced Lundgaard to lose his fastest two laps that he had already set. Other incidents included Santino Ferrucci suffering damage during his group 1 qualifying session that forced him to pull off the course in to a run-off area, and Scott Dixon clipping the wall in his group 1 session, forcing him to abandon what would have been his fastest lap.^[2]
