ESPY’s “Best Driver” nominee Ryan Hunter-Reay will start from the second position tomorrow for the Pocono INDYCAR 400. The reigning series champion is only nine points out of the lead in defense of his 2012 title.
“It was a great one for Andretti Autosport. It’s 400 miles. We got quailing out of the way. It’s going to be a long race. We have to go against Penske, Ganassi and, of course, a big challenge from teammates. After that we got going, we get to racing.”
About teamwork
“We meet as a team. Andretti Autosport is really open that way. We go over everything from every session and what we’re going to do the next session. We’re constantly talking as a group about what we can do better. Each driver likes something different in a race car, and that’s where we go our own way.”
About Turn 1
“(Alex) Tagliani crashed because he understeered into the gray. (E.J.) Viso got loose early in the corner. This place is tricky in general. This place is tough. It’s more thinking. You have to be so on top of your race tools in the car. As the wind shifts and changes, and you get into one car, two cars in traffic, the place is always changing. When you’re running, you’re changing gears. It’s a busy lap here. Short of Milwaukee, it’s the busiest lap. You’re moving things around, trying to keep up with the balance of the car.”
