“Today was a big disappointment for us, probably one of the worst races we’ve had from green to checkered. I had a car I couldn’t drive hard when I needed to, the strategy we went for didn’t work out, our pit stops did not really work out … nothing really worked out for us today. I guess sometimes you have those days in racing, but they’re certainly not days we ever want to be accustomed to having. We’ll regroup and move on to Barber.”
Today’s 80-lap race from the temporary street circuit in Long Beach, CA saw only four laps of yellow flag conditions changing up strategies throughout the field. Third-generation racer Marco Andretti topped the Honda roster with an eighth-place finish, his 76th career top-10 finish. Teammate Carlos Muñoz took the twin checkers next in the ninth position, his 10th Verizon IndyCar Series top-10 finish. The 28 team had an out-of-character day and recorded a 13th-place result for Ryan Hunter-Reay.
