“We had a good lap going there to start. [Sebastien] Bourdais came out in front of us, so I backed up and then at the end the car got really loose out of Turn 3. That cost us about three and a half tenths and that is the difference of making it [to Round 2]. […]

“Overall, the run was pretty good, I think. We put a good 28 DHL Honda out there today. We have a lot more speed than we had at Indy, and I’m definitely happy about that. We need to just focus on the race from here – hopefully have a good race car tomorrow night, make […]

“Certainly disappointed with starting 22nd. I think if we had a chance at the end of the day (to make another attempt), I think we would have been somewhere around 14th or 15th. But, it is what it is. We can make up the spots in the race, it’s a long race. We will concentrate […]

“Today went alright. We worked on the car all day and are just still trying to find some speed. Not sure where we stand for tomorrow, but we are definitely going to put the best car out there.”em> Practice week for the 2019 edition of the Indianapolis 500 is complete and the Andretti stable heads […]

We were seventh overall in times coming out of practice, before quals, but we just couldn’t find the speed to advance when the time came. The DHL team has a […]

“Obviously disappointing to not make into the Fast Six. We had a unique situation with the tire opportunity in qualifying. We ended up using used Reds to try and move into the Fast Six and it just didn’t seem like we had the performance on them while the others were on new. It was definitely […]

“We seemed to plateau from Practice 1 where we were fifth. The whole team has fallen in competitiveness as every session has gone on. So, unfortunately everyone is sitting right now in eighth, 11th and 13th. We don’t know the reason, we’re all scratching our heads. But, looking down pit lane, the usual top qualifiers […]

“I think we have a chance tomorrow, especially on used tires. I was going for everything out there, but really struggling with some rear lock in the brake zones so I had to take a bit easy in those. I was on a pole lap until I hit Turn 15, I was just trying to […]
