Scott Sharp on Indianapolis 500 Second Day Qualifying: “We’re in Pretty Good”



SCOTT SHARP (#8 Patrón Sharp Rahal Letterman Racing Dallara/Honda/Firestone):

“We’re in pretty good. We almost got in last night. This was just a great run by the Patron team. The track’s really good, but the car’s just perfect. Like I’ve said all along coming here, we probably wouldn’t win the qualifying battle, but we might have a really good chance to win the main battle; the 500 miles. We continue to get the car better and better every day, and that’s what you’ve got to do. ”

Were the conditions just that much better today?

“The conditions were much better, no doubt. We’ve made some good progress with the car, as well. You know, it is what it is. I’ve told the guys I’ve started on the pole, front row, second row and third row. That doesn’t matter. It’s how good your car is in race trim. We’re going to work hard next week, continue what we’ve learned, and I think we’ll be in good shape. ”
