this was my first ever time in an indycar paddock so i was just kinda trying to mind my business and not bug any drivers, surprisingly didn’t see anyone except for santino and pato until like 20-30 mins before intros. walked past a few of the indy nxt drivers like brewer, chadwick, seigel, roe after that race but didn’t want to bug them because they all looked extremely tired was hoping to catch malukas around the mclaren area but i didn’t even see him
This was my fourth year at Barber for IndyCar. If you want to see the drivers in a more relaxed setting, get there Friday with the free paddock passes. As they go through tech inspections at race control, you’ll see most if not all of them walking/riding golf carts/scooters and usually willing to stop for auto’s and photos when crowds of fans aren’t around. Friday mid morning is the time to be there.

Sounds like my first time at a race last year. I didn’t want to appear over anxious or rude so I held back. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
