When I saw P.T. hit the wall, I was very surprised because he makes few mistakes. That's not the kind of mistakes he makes when he performs like that. It just emphasizes the point that it's really difficult to have a clear race here. I'm just glad he did.

We didn't really chase lap times but the car was consistent and I'm very confident that we will have a good starting point when we come back in June. We got a lot done and I think we accomplished most of what we wanted to do.
