I think that it's normal that, before the end of the year, there are a lot of question mark...I have to remember you the last year situation: this winter a lot of people think that we have no more than 20 cars...and now we saw that Indycar had to change the qualifying format and other rules because there were too much cars...I think ke we have to stay quite and more optimistic...

Maybe with a more talented driver than Sarah Fisher the team could increase the results (and its reputetion)...remeber that they have a top ten finish this year at the first race with Rahal...

Results are about sales, not podium finishes, so I guess they see the sense in it.

For example, I don't think that, from a sporting point of view, their NASCAR program is better than IndyCar program...
