Helio Castroneves: “We had a good day today and in the morning we were a little bit scared with an electrical issue, I don’t know exactly what it was, but we were able to fix it. We went back out right away and we were able to do a few long runs, which was great. The car felt strong and consistent, which is most important for me here at the Indy 500. Now we go back again to the drawing board and make sure we understand the changes that we made today so that we are ready for qualifying.”
