THE MODERATOR: We’ll go ahead and get started with our post-race press conference. We welcome Brad Keselowski, who finished second in today’s race, and Jimmie Johnson.
Brad, talk a little bit about to run out there today. The last few laps were just crazy.
BRAD KESELOWSKI: Yeah. Well, you know, just hard, hard racing on a great racetrack. You know, I really enjoy coming here. This is a real road course. Seems like all the other places are parking lots with corners. This is a real road course. You see real racing here. I think that’s what today was.
I’m proud of the last two days I had. I feel like Jimmie Johnson with the cars I’ve had on road courses as of late. You know, just a good couple of days. Happy with the runs. Obviously would have liked to have one more position in both of them. We were very, very close. Trying to keep in perspective how far we’ve come as a team. To run this competitively on road courses is something I’m very proud of.
