You come to Indy and you race for a week. This is our biggest race. This is what we race our careers for, is to try and win Indy and it\u2019s a marathon. I\u2019m wore out. Unless you\u2019re a racer and in this situation, I don\u2019t think I can explain the feelings that you get. This is us winning the biggest race of our sport. I said this the other day, you can win a bunch of championships but if you don\u2019t win Indy then you haven\u2019t really done much.
