Tony Kanaan (No. 11 Team 7-Eleven Dallara/Honda/Firestone, finished sixth): “It was a frustrating day for us. We went a lap down right away because of a (tire) puncture and we never recovered. We had a fast car, and the key was to never give up. We came here with one goal, win a championship. I told you guys from the beginning that (Dario Franchitti) had a better chance than I did. This proves that when it’s your day. It’s your day. So I want to run and give him (Dario) a big hug right now. ”
Ryan Hunter-reay (No. 17 Rahal Letterman Team Ethanol Dallara/Honda/Firestone, finished seventh): “Seventh is a solid result for us to end the season on. It was a wild day out there and I think we got the best possible result we could for what we went through today. This makes up for some of the tough breaks we’ve gotten in the last couple of races. ” (About clinching Bombardier Learjet Rookie of the Year): “We accomplished more in six races than I ever thought would be possible when I joined the team.

A. J. Foyt IV: (No. 22 Vision Racing Dallara/Honda/Firestone, finished 10th): “I just have to thank my guys.

I would have liked to have finished higher, but I’m happy we got a top-10 to finish the season. ”
