I don't know. I never heard of her.

I'm really happy for Buddy. I know this has been a tough season for him. He really deserves this.

I was really surprised he was fastest. I kept trying to think as qualifying was going on, 'Who was faster than me in practice (Saturday morning)?' Everyone was my answer... But I really didn't think Briscoe was going to do it.

It's something different that people haven't seen. It's a story that people are interested in, and the league will do what they think is best for the series.

There are people all over the place. Kids and adults. Men and women. It's been really cool. Having this whole role model thing happen is definitely something that happened a lot quicker than what I thought. It's really easy because it's not trying. I'm not, like, trying to be a role model. I haven't tried to go out of my way to inspire people. When you're real and you're authentic and you try to give honest answers all the time, then it's easy.

The Indy 500 was on (TV) every year and my dad used to watch it. I used to watch the start, maybe, then fall asleep. It was too long.
