The three men that made it to the podium said...

MARIO DOMINGUEZ (#55 Herdez
Ford-Cosworth/Lola/Bridgestone): "What goes around comes around. We've
had a lot of bad luck this year. The team had a wonderful strategy. The team
really put the car back together after the first lap incident. I feel like the
luckiest man in the world at the moment. I really think it will be the first of
many for this team. We had the good luck for once today. I kept thinking I could
win this thing if this or that strategy played out. But our bad luck turned
around and we won. It was unbelievable. A win is a win and you take it no matter
what."
PATRICK CARPENTIER (#32 Player's/Indeck
Ford-Cosworth/Reynard/Bridgestone): "Every weekend is different. And
when you get conditions like this it's always difficult. It was too tough of
conditions but it was the right decision to run the race behind the pace car. In
a race like that, that's just the way it is. I've lost races like this, but I
ended up second today and I'll take it. It's a shame that we had to do it behind
the pace car but that's the way it goes and that's the way racing goes."
PAUL TRACY (#26 KOOL Honda/Lola/Bridgestone): "Well it started
raining and it just got worse and worse and worse. I didn't really understand
what was going on and my team didn't understand what was going on. It was tough
for me because I didn't think the race was going to go on as long as it did. It
was getting dark, and I had a dark visor on. The track was flooding and it was
no one's fault. It was just Mother Nature."
