The Verizon IndyCar Series held its first open test of the upcoming season at the Barber Motorsport Park.
The Penske squad showed its great form by finishing with the three fastest times in a session that was cut short due to poor visibility in the morning.
Will Power ended-up at the top of the chart followed by his teammates Juan Pablo Montoya and Helio Castroneves.
Reinging IndyCar champion Scott Dixon was fourth for Ganassi, while AJ Foyt Racing's Takuma Sato rounded up the top five in the fastest Honda-powered car.
Ryan Briscoe was sixth quickest in the second Ganassi car, ahead of Justin Wilson, Simon Pagenaud, James Hinchcliffe and Ryan Hunter-Reay, who completed the top 10.
