I would say it's the hardest hit I've ever had. I've crashed at Talladega, crashed at Charlotte and crashed at Phoenix, but man, oh man, that was big.
will field two cars in the 2009 IndyCar Series. With Alex Tagliani, the team will have a wily veteran with the experience and commitment to continue moving the team forward. Joining Tagliani will be a driver of equal gift and grit to round out a balanced driver package.
I'm honored that Conquest has called on me again this weekend to drive for them
Unfortunately, Enrique's injury is not healing as fast as we thought and would've liked, and with Alex doing such a great job last weekend [he finished 22nd in Detroit] it was an easy decision to keep him in the car for [Chicagoland] ... We also elected to keep Alex for Australia since he has so much experience at that track. We've been looking for strong results all year and we saw what he was able to do in Detroit. Bringing Alex to a track he knows at Surfers and with more time behind the wheel, I think we will be able to fight for a win and end the season on a high note.
I'm honored that Conquest has called on me again this weekend to drive for them ... We came in at the last minute (last weekend) and made so much progress in so little time. We had a top five car on race day and that is proof just how good these guys are.
