Scott Dixon: "Today, good start. Juan [Montoya] sort of crowded me a
bit on the left, which sort of gave me an opening to go around the
outside of him into Turn 1, which was definitely the key there, and the
first pit stop exchange with TK [Tony Kanaan] and Helio, obviously opened up the
position for me to try and pass Helio in the pits. Probably need to buy
TK a beer. Obviously he didn't do it on purpose, but that's the way it
happens, and it definitely helped out the scenario with our race." -
Question: You saw TK right in victory lane? What did you say, if
anything, and did you touch base on his pit stop at the first stop?
Answer, SCOTT DIXON: "Yeah, I spoke to TK, he said I need to buy him a
beer, even though he doesn't drink ... I'll drink it for him
(Laughter)." Image Credit: Chris Jones for IndyCar.com |
