“I’m thrilled that the season is finally upon us. I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to stay busy and behind the wheel of lots of cars thanks to Honda and Acura, but now the focus is fully on the 2019 INDYCAR season and picking up where we left off last year. “We have had some strong tests leading into St. Pete, but it’s clear that the competition is also stronger than ever, so we will have to be sure to execute every session. The NAPA Racing team and myself are in a good place and we look forward to kicking off the season in a strong way to indicate our intent to go one better than last year.” |

“The Firestone Grand Prix of St. Pete can’t come soon enough. We’re looking to pick up where we left off by capitalizing on the momentum we had at the end the 2018 season with a pole and victory at Sonoma. The off-season testing program has gone very well thanks to all the hard work from not only the 28 DHL crew and engineering staff, but from everyone at Andretti Autosport. We’re looking forward to collecting more hardware for DHL, AutoNation and Honda in 2019.”

“I’m excited to get the season started. Last year we had a new car and now with a year of learning how it rides and better understanding it, I think the U.S. Concrete team will be much more competitive. We’ve been working hard this off season to build on where we left off at the end of 2018. I have a new engineer, Mark Bryant, and we’re working really well together so I’m eager to see where 2019 takes us.”

“I’m excited to be showing up to St. Pete for the second time in an Indy car. So much was learned during my first season and we’ve spent a lot of time preparing this winter. Our pre-season testing went really well and I’m ready to start the year off right in the Gainbridge car.”

“I’m so excited to get going at St. Pete for the first race of the season. It’s my first Indy Lights race and I’m sure there will be a lot to learn, but I don’t doubt that we’re gonna be right on pace and able to challenge for wins. I’ve been on the podium every year I’ve raced at St. Pete including third in my first ever USF2000 race in 2016 and my first race win of the Road to Indy in 2017. I’m feeling good and can’t wait to give CyberArk, Optiv, Palo Alto Networks and SailPoint Technologies some good results!”

“The first race of the season in St. Pete is always a special event for me, especially because it is my home race only a three hour drive west of Jupiter, Florida. I am looking forward to putting on a show for my friends, family, and sponsors that will be in attendance. I am especially excited because it will be my first official race weekend with Andretti Autosport who have been extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the pre-season. A lot of hard work and dedication has been brought to the table to make this partnership come together, I am focused on getting the most out of this incredible opportunity. It is going to be a tough battle all year, but I am up for the challenge.”

“I’m so excited to get back to racing in St. Pete. A lot of work has been put into the offseason and we are ready to make our championship run. The goal is to stay as consistent as possible and to get as many wins as possible. We are trying to come out of the gates with a pair of wins to start the season off.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
