THEY SAID IT: "It was a big step forward from the team. They were here working all night, trying to give us something different. We learned a lot day over day, so really proud of our team. Everybody at Astemo and Team Chev that supports us. We sacrificed our reds in that first run there; we weren't quick enough, so we gave that up for the Firestone Fast Six here, but to get to the fast six was a big gain for all of us."
