MARCO ANDRETTI, #26 TEAM VENOM ENERGY DRINK CAR

* Ended practice in P6

"Today's practice session was productive for the Venom car. The racecar is pretty good and I think we'll be strong on Sunday. We just have to find a bit more in the qualifying car and we can be a pole contender tomorrow."

MIKE CONWAY, #27 TEAM DHL/ SUN DROP CITRUS SODA CAR

* Finished the practice session in P11

"Today was OK. We were just working through a lot of changes and trying to get the DHL/Sun Drop car as comfortable as possible. I think at the end there, on the new set of tires, we got it pretty good. We just needed a clear lap to really see what we can do. But, I think we've got a good direction with the balance and that's the important thing for now."

RYAN HUNTER-REAY, #28 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR

* Ended the first practice session in P12

"Today, we really wanted to work on qualifying, but we just didn't get the track space we needed. Unfortunately, we didn't put a lap in on our second set of tires. But, we'll hold that in our pocket until tomorrow. The GoDaddy.com car felt good driving around there. It was tight quarters, but it felt good."

DANICA PATRICK, #7 TEAM GoDaddy.com CAR

* Finished the session in P13

"I think we had a pretty solid practice session today for the GoDaddy.com car. We put down some laps and tried a few different things. We do know what we need to do to make the car better, so we have a direction. We still have two practice sessions tomorrow to fine-tune things, so I believe qualifying will be good."
