MARCO ANDRETTI, #26 TEAM VENOM ENERGY DRINK CAR
Will start tomorrow’s race in P16
“We unfortunately weren’t where we hoped to be at the end of qualifying today. I think overall the Venom car is a good race car. We should be able to contend tomorrow night, but we’re going to be coming from pretty far back and that’s frustrating.”
RYAN HUNTER-REAY, #37 TEAM IZOD CAR
Qualifed in P20
“We’re just lacking some overall speed. We don’t really have it yet. I’m confident we’ll have it in race trim once we’re racing in packs. But, qualifying wasn’t a good one for us.”
TONY KANAAN, #11 TEAM 7-ELEVEN CAR
Will start the race in P8
“I didn’t expect to be that fast, to be honest. I’m a little concerned about the race car, but that was a decent (qualifying) run. I think we’ll be OK. Hopefully, we’ll put on a good show tomorrow night for the fans. I love this place. I know we’re not coming back here next year, but let’s work hard to be back here in 2012.”
DANICA PATRICK, #7 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR
Qualifed in P11
“The car felt better than it did in practice. It was the most comfortable and confident I’ve been during a qualifying run. I was second-guessing myself if I was being aggressive enough. I really like racing here so hopefully we can get the GoDaddy.com car farther up the field.”
