It feels really good. I don’t know what we’ve got to do to keep the bad luck off of us, but hopefully this is a start. Our guys did an amazing job yesterday.
TONY KANAAN, NO.14 BRYANT AJ FOYT RACING CHEVROLET, MET WITH MEDIA TO DISCUSS BRYANT SPONSORSHIP, HOW HE SEES THE SEASON PLAYING OUT AND OTHER TOPICS, FULL TRANSCRIPT:
Felix Rosenqvist chased down rookie Pato O'Ward in the remaining laps of the REV Group Grand Prix in Race No. 2 at Road America for his first career IndyCar win.
What started out as another strong NTT INDYCAR Series run for Meyer Shank Racing driver Jack Harvey, ended in disappointment on Saturday after the young Briton put the No. 60 AutoNation / SiriusXM Honda on the front row, but suffered a brake issue on lap 39 that kept him from making the finish.
Taking the positives from a strong return to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the GMR Grand Prix last Saturday that saw Jack Harvey qualify the No. 60 AutoNation / SiriusXM Honda on the front row and race in podium contention until an untimely yellow flag shuffled the Brit back through the field, Meyer Shank Racing and Harvey are looking for redemption at Road America for the double header Rev Group Grand Prix on Saturday and Sunday.
Simon Pagenaud moved to second in the point standings with a third-place podium finish in GMR Grand Prix on the Road Course at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Pagenaud powered to third in the No. 22 Menards Team Penske Chevrolet, from the 20th starting position.
NASCAR, along with the ARCA Menards Series, head out to Phoenix Raceway for the first of two trips this season. The weekend in the desert culminates with a 312-lap race for the Cup Series on Sunday.

Josh Berry and Wood Brothers Racing head to one of Berry’s strongest tracks this weekend as the NASCAR Cup Series visits Phoenix Raceway for Sunday’s Straight Talk Wireless 500.
