“We came away with a top 10, but that doesn’t reflect the potential of the DHL Honda today. We built a car to run in the front and that’s where we should have been in the end. The car had the pace, I drove a clean race, we just didn’t get it done. Sometimes races […]

“I was looking to make up a lot of track time on that out lap and I short-shifted out of second gear, knowing that first [gear] was my problem last night. I got on it in second and it just came around. I almost caught it – but almost doesn’t count. It sucks. The guys […]

“We had a good start, moved up a few spots around the outside. On the first stop, I just lit the rears up in first gear trying to get a good run out, but lost the rear and smacked the left front into the pit exit wall, continued on but lost some front wing downforce […]

“We had a decent start, and I think we were going to have a good day today for the 28 DHL Honda team. It’s unfortunate. We finally got some points yesterday. The first two races of the season we had our own issues – electrical and mechanical – so finally we were on our way […]

“We’ll have to figure out something for tomorrow. Unfortunately, there is no time for it without practice and going right in to qualifying. We’ll have to try and guess on something for the race. We’ve got good pace on new tires. We just did not have the pace to keep up consistently. I think fourth […]

“We found ourselves digging out of another massive hole today. I had to drive my tail off from 22nd up through the field, close a 15-second gap on track, and then pass seven cars. It was frustrating to say the least, that’s two races in a row now where we’ve had to come back from […]

“Incredibly unfortunate events got us at the start of the race. The team did a great job and turned the car around for qualifying. I got in it and drove the wheels off it — up to P4 in qualifying. It ended up being a track position race which would’ve really benefited us and unfortunately, […]

“We weren’t able to show the true potential of the No. 55 Mazda RT24-P at the end of the race, which is unfortunate. Overnight, the car was really hooked up – the best car I’ve driven at Daytona. But on the positive side, both Mazdas completed the 24 hours and the No. 77 car finished […]
