THIS IS A GOOD WAY TO SAY YOU WANT TO STAY IN INDYCAR ISN’T IT?

“Yeah, I appreciate everyone reaching out, including Pato (O’Ward) and a lot of other drivers and team owners.  It means a lot and it helps to do these kind of performances.   Our Arrow McLaren SP Chevrolet was unbelievable and thanks to Mission and Team Chevy.  It was on rails all day and I felt so calm in the car.  I think I knew when I did that lap that it was the one.   Big thanks to the team for giving me a really good car.”

DID YOU SAVE A LITTLE BIT OF LIFE ON THE RED TIRES IN ROUND TWO TO HELP YOU WITH THE FIRESTONE FAST SIX?

“Yes, in round one we only did one lap and we said that if it was a good one to call me in so that we could save the tire life for the Fast Six.  Everything just worked out perfectly so I am just super stoked.”
