MARCO ANDRETTI, #26 TEAM VENOM ENERGY DRINK CAR
Finished the race in 14th place  

    “We were hoping for another yellow flag today. We figured in the rain it’s so easy to make a mistake. But the quality of drivers now is awesome, no mistakes were made and we went green the last bit. I guess at the time the strategy made sense. After a bit of a rollercoaster of a weekend - my teammates kicked my butt in qualifying, we were able to pass some cars yesterday in the rain - it would have been nice to capitalize but for right now I think myself and the Venom team are coming ready for Indy.”

MIKE CONWAY, #27 TEAM WINDOW WORLD CARES CAR
Ended with a 6th place finish  

    “It was a good result overall for the Window World Cares car. We ended up in sixth place and got a few points. It was difficult though; we had to try and stay out of trouble, there was so much going on in every corner and it was so slippery out there. But good job to the team and some good calls were made. We managed to make our way up to sixth - we started 20th so I’m pretty happy with that.” 

RYAN HUNTER-REAY, #28 TEAM DHL/SUN DROP CITRUS SODA CAR
Ended the race in 18th place  

    “We basically just held position today; we needed a lot of attrition and we didn’t get it. It’s a shame because we had a great weekend coming into this race. The DHL/Sun Drop car was strong and it didn’t pan out for us. Now we’ll look ahead to Indy and hopefully a big breakthrough.” 

DANICA PATRICK, #7 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR
Finished in 23rd place  

    “It was a really long day today for the GoDaddy car. We started today so far back and so many laps down and we knew we weren’t in contention. So our only job today was to kind of run our own race; get laps in, don’t crash, don’t spin. We did what we could and just tried to gain all the spots we could for points.”
