Andretti Green IndyCar Practice Report
Indianapolis 500
May 22, 2009

Driver: Danica Patrick
Car: #7 Boost Mobile/Motorola Dallara/Honda/Firestone
Danica Patrick:
"I think we had a good final practice today. We were able to work through the hour practice, which was great since there were no yellows. We made a couple changes and I think we have a couple of options we could go with for the race. I am ready for Sunday to get here and hopefully we will have a strong finish for the #7 Boost Mobile/Motorola car."


Driver: Tony Kanaan
Car: #11 Team 7-Eleven Dallara/Honda/Firestone
Tony Kanaan:
"It was a great practice for the Team 7-Eleven car. I was surprised on how much running we were able to do in the hour practice since we had no yellows. It looks like the weather on race day is going to be similar to today so that is helpful as well. The #11 car felt good and I'm getting excited for the race."


Driver: Marco Andretti
Car: #26 Team Venom Energy Dallara/Honda/Firestone
Marco Andretti:
"It was good to get the #26 car out on track, and I think the conditions and traffic today will be very similar to what they predict will be on Sunday. We didn't quite have the speed we were looking for but I am still confident that the Team Venom Energy car will be able to run strong and be a contender come race day."


Driver: Hideki Mutoh
Car: #27 Formula Dream Dallara/Honda/Firestone
Hideki Mutoh:
"I'm really excited for the race on Sunday. I feel like we are getting closer to the race day set-up on the car, luckily I have three teammates that will give the #27 Formula Dream crew their input as well. Hopefully the track conditions that we practiced on today will be similar on race day."
