Marco Andretti, #26 NYSE Dallara/Honda/Firestone: "We took a lot of downforce out of the car and it was tough during that run. I couldn't get the car to go flat out. The first lap I had some understeer, so I did some things in the cockpit to adjust it and the next lap was worse. It was a bit of a bummer. I think we have a really good race car. We're in the middle of the pack, but I think the NYSE car will be alright."
