Quotable:
“I can’t wait to get there, man. Sonoma is one of the best tracks on tour. It’s an epic crowd that has a ton of energy. I love all the fans. I miss it before I get there, and then I miss it when I leave. I love that place.
“We’re sixth in points now with only three races to go before the Countdown starts. We want to see if we can move up another spot or two before it’s all said and done and we’re getting ready to battle for a championship. Indy will be here before we know it so it’s absolutely crucial that we make it a long Sunday and collect some more round wins this weekend.”
