OF NOTE: Captured his career-best finish at Road America with a second-place podium 
“I’ve been struggling to get on the podium, but it finally happened today. The team did an amazing job. We seemed to lack a little bit of pace to Alex (Palou) and Josef (Newgarden) – they seemed to be the guys to beat. I think we had third-place pace and that’s where we were going to finish until Josef had that problem. The Gainbridge Honda felt really good and the guys did an amazing job in the pits to gain me a few spots. I was able to get us a few more on track and thankfully we were able to come away with a podium.”
