 | BOMMARITO AUTOMOTIVE GROUP 500 AT GATEWAY RACE 1 08.29.2020 No. 88 CAPSTONE #SHIFTTOGREEN HONDASTARTED 10 // FINISHED 4 CHAMPIONSHIP: 7 (221 pts.)OF NOTE: Recorded a seventh career top-five finish in his 26th start // Maintains position in the championship points standings Colton Herta: “It was a fairly straight forward race for me, honestly. We didn’t have a lot of passing, but a really good strategy. I tried to make the fuel number, keep my distance and save the front tires. We made an incredibly good fuel number with the Capstone car. We went the longest on the first stint, then was able to go that much longer on every stint after. We caught the yellow and that kind of gave us our break. We had good in and out-laps, so we got around Marcus [Ericsson] in pitstop cycles and that was pretty much it. I don’t think I made a single pass on track. Strategy and knowing how to save fuel efficiently will be important for tomorrow, along with overall race craft around this place and how to follow cars – so I think we have some takeaways from today.” |
