“That was a tough drive. We just made the car better and better through the whole race and I wasn’t really happy with the car at all. I have to give big credit to my team and my engineer, Ray Gosselin, for putting the right setup on the car. We finally got it to where I like it – some remanences of the past. A little more straight-line speed and we could’ve given these guys a run for their money. Congratulations to Helio [Castroneves] – it’s great to see him win again. He’s been right there knocking on the door for so long. Hats off to the No. 28 DHL team and thank you to all the Iowa fans, we love coming here! Hopefully we can come back here at night some time, because that is my favorite.”
