best counts early everybody factor good lap last maybe pass push race strange sure team until vegas wait year
I thought it made sense last year not to use Push to Pass because usually you have Push to Pass until you go off throttle (to deactivate it) and in Vegas your on the throttle the whole race so it should be an interesting transition. I think it's a little strange but if everybody has it, I'm sure it will be fun. Everybody will probably wait to use at the end of the race because you don't want to use it too early then not have it for the last lap which is when it counts but who knows, maybe that will be too late. It's a new factor and the good thing is that I'm in the best team and they'll tell me what to do I don't have to think, just drive.
clear meant pass sure
They told me (on the radio), 'You've got to go by Glock.' That was not a very clear message, ... I wasn't sure if that meant he was going to let me by or they wanted me to try to pass him. I thought, 'If he doesn't let me by, I'm going to try it.'
cool general good race vegas
I think just going to Vegas in general is always good. It's good for the series, good for the fans, good for the drivers. It's just a very different race in a very cool city.
deserved feels happy list saying start win
It feels awesome. I won't start saying how often I've deserved to win because the list is so long. But I'm really happy about this one.
begin calling enjoying friend hard maybe next people possible soon talk thinking worrying year
Bruno is my friend and I talk to him as much as I can. I want him to get better as soon as possible and get back to racing. I know I'll have to begin worrying about what I do next year pretty soon. I really just started thinking about that. Maybe I should be calling some people now, but I'm just enjoying this so much that it's hard to think about that.
figured four good second setup
Newman-Hass has the setup figured out here, so we're in good shape. We're four tenths of a second clear. That's impressive.
absolutely call great network news people spain
It was absolutely great and I am so overwhelmed. So much people call me and congratulate me on this win. Now that I did it once, ... I want it again. We made the network news in Spain and that was tremendous.
good quick truth
I've always been quick here but the truth is I've never had a good race,
couple dropping happened lap losing oil per slick sure tough track whether
I'm not sure what happened to the track, whether someone was dropping oil or what, but the track was very slick in the afternoon. I was losing three-tenths per lap on a couple of the turns. It was very tough to drive.
line tried
I tried to line up Timo so many times but he was determined,
corner everybody nature race wants win
Its just the nature of the game. Everybody wants to win the first race and get to the first corner in front.
nature
It's a shame. It's just the nature of the game.
ahead beginning both exactly fuel good happy hoping laps maybe obviously points saving second solid stop team thanks third towards weekend yellow
It was good fun. At the beginning of the race, I was saving a little more fuel than both of them, hoping that maybe towards the end and on the third stop there was going to be a yellow on that three-, four-lap difference, then it would have been golden, two laps ahead of everybody. It would have been nice. It was a good race, and I'm very happy for the team. 1-2 again. For the championship, I don't know exactly how the points are, but obviously I must be a little better, a little more solid in second place. It's a good weekend thanks to my PacifiCare team
saturday
It's OK, because I still have Saturday and Sunday,
