MARCO ANDRETTI, #26 TEAM VENOM ENERGY DRINK CAR
Ended the race in 13th place
“We didn’t get the results we were hoping for with the Venom car today. When it came down to the full field of traffic, we just didn’t have the speed we needed. We’ll keep working at it and aim for better results next weekend in Iowa.”
MIKE CONWAY, #27 TEAM DHL/SUN DROP CITRUS SODA CAR
Finished the race in 12th place
“It was tough, but we managed to stay on the lead lap, which was a positive. We stayed out of trouble and made a few good calls, which also helped us pick off the field bit-by-bit. The DHL/Sun Drop car was pretty good; we just tried to dial it in as the day went on, although we could have used a bit more. Hopefully, we’ll build on that next weekend at Iowa.”
RYAN HUNTER-REAY, #28 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR
Did not finish; result of a single-car incident on the first lap
“It’s extremely unfortunate. The car just broke loose on the way in and I just couldn’t save it. I feel bad for the guys. We had a good car here this weekend. We qualified seventh, which was our highest oval qualifying result yet, so we were really looking forward to it. But, that’s racing. It happens. We’ll just keep our heads up and move on to Iowa. We were looking to really represent GoDaddy, DHL and Sun Drop really well here this weekend, but it wasn’t meant to be and I’m just disappointed for them.”
DANICA PATRICK, #7 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR
Finished the race in 5th place
“Every weekend I want to go win. My goal was top-seven, so finishing in the top-five is great. My day would have been even better if those last three yellows hadn’t come out. I really took care of my equipment. Once the yellows came out, everything started going backwards. That’s the way it goes. I’m glad to get a good finish for GoDaddy.com-they’ve been so supportive for so long. From here, we’ll look forward to Iowa next weekend.”
