Danica Patrick, #7 Motorola Dallara/Honda/Firestone
“I think Kentucky is another good opportunity for us to run well in the Motorola car. I feel like I’ve got a good sense for what my car needs to feel like there to be fast. I know TK (Tony Kanaan) tested there last week, so that’ll give all of us some information to work with to start the weekend and then we’ll go from there. “
Tony Kanaan, #11 Team 7-Eleven Dallara/Honda/Firestone
“Going to Kentucky will be a tough race for us. It’s not a track that has favored us a lot, but we did test there last week and things were much better than I expected. We did exactly what we needed to do at Michigan and we need to keep the momentum going at Kentucky. We know that if we want to get back in the championship race, Team 7-Eleven has to keep winning races and that’s what we intend to do. “
Marco Andretti, #26 NYSE Dallara/Honda/Firestone
“The NYSE team never lost its confidence early in the season and I think that’s really showed lately. The guys gave me a really good race car in Michigan and we’ve been pretty good on the last several ovals. We can still gain quite a bit of ground in the championship so we need to keep turning in good results and push to get our first win of the year. “
Dario Franchitti, #27 Canadian Club Dallara/Honda/Firestone
“Kentucky is a race that I enjoy. We had a great car last week at Michigan and it is going to be equally as important for us to show up with a good car this week at Kentucky. The Canadian Club team has done really well giving me the setups needed to keep us in the championship battle. Last week was unfortunate, but we have to put it behind us and look forward to this weekend. Hopefully we can get the Canadian Club car back to victory lane. “
Bryan Herta, #26 XM Satellite Radio Acura
“What everyone likes about Road America is that it’s got such a great flow. It’s a long, challenging track with so many different types of corners and elevation changes; all of the things that you’d say make up a great track seem to be at Road America. The XM Satellite Radio Acura team has not finished the last few races and with five races left, we have to finish them all. Both the team and I have the chance to finish third in the championship and I think that would be an exceptional first year in the series, so that’s the goal. In order to do that, we have to finish races with no mistakes or reliability problems from here on out. “
Marino Franchitti, #26 XM Satellite Radio Acura
“After our test at Road America I can safely say that it was the most fun I’ve ever had driving a racing car so I’m really looking forward to the weekend. It’s such a great track, right up there with Spa, the Old Nurburgring and Mosport as one of my favorites. The whole AGR team has regrouped after the disappointing result at Mid-Ohio and we’re ready to go. Hopefully at the end of the four hours Bryan and I can get the XM Satellite Radio Acura back on the podium where it belongs. “
Jaime Camara, #11 oso*fresh Dallara/Firestone
“I am looking forward to getting back on track at Kentucky. Last week, I tested an IndyCar for the team with Tony (Kanaan) and came away with a lot of good information. The oso*fresh team has made a lot of really good progress the past couple of races that we hope continues this weekend. ”
