ROBERTO MORENO -11- Big K Ford-Cosworth - Qualified 8th / Finished 9th -

HOW DID THE CONTACT BETWEEN YOU AND MAGNUSSEN OCCUR?

"I got a run on him and then he shut the door on me. I was already committed and there was no way he should have tried to make the pass."

AT THE END OF THE RACE IT SEEMED THAT YOU WERE FAST ENOUGH TO HAVE CONTESTED FOR THE WIN . . .

"We had a car that was a little loose after the first stint and we made it better towards the end."

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO PASS FRANCHITTI AT THE END OF THE AND BECOME A FACTOR IN THE BATTLE FOR THE LEAD?

"I was trying to get my lap back. If a yellow comes out I would get my lap back. When you are driving fast you just want to try and drive as fast as you can."
