Very exciting times for us ... and me personally, obviously, with everything that's going on. I think with the team that we have, it's just been a dream these last three years.
Would I be back here if it wasn't for Marco? No. Now that I'm here, I'm going to try to win.
As a driver, he has developed much quicker than I think anybody expected, and that is what really made this possible.
He's all but signed. It's not 100 percent done, but we're down to the piddly stuff.
He's going to a good team, but also to a team where they do things differently. It may take him some time to adjust.
Overall, I'm very happy with his performance, as is the whole team. His initial test couldn't have gone any better.
He didn't have a perfect car in the race today. He drove like a true veteran.
I just felt so bad for him his year has been that way. He's had such strong cars in every race. I think he's probably had the strongest car over the year, but he's had the worst luck over the year. I just felt so bad when I saw that thing stall. I couldn't believe it.

I know it was important for Dario to win here.
I'm proud of them, proud of the whole team. Dan, I'm really proud of. He had some problems at the smaller ovals last year. He's really delivering. I'm very proud of Tony, also. Don't count them out for a race.

If CART continues on, it's just going to drag all of open-wheel racing down.
Believe me, you lose more than a gallon of fluids during a race. You could lose between six and 10 pounds during a race, depending on hot it is.
