********<\/p>\n

BRADLEY, WHAT HAPPENED?<\/strong>
\nIt was the first lap \u2013 Take 2, I guess. I just saw four or five cars spinning around. They started to go high, so I went low. Then they started coming back low, and I did everything I could do. There was just nowhere to go. Next thing I knew, I was almost upside down.<\/p>\n

It’s no big deal \u2013 well, it is a big deal \u2013 but there’s nothing we can do about it.<\/p>\n

DID YOU HAVE TIME TO SEE HOW GOOD THE CAR WAS?<\/strong>
\nNo, we ran half a lap twice. You’re just getting the thing into high gear, and that’s about it.<\/p>\n

YOU HAD A ROUGH DAY OVERALL, INCLUDING THAT SPIN IN QUALIFYING.<\/strong>
\nYeah, and I don’t even know what happened there. I got run into and got turned around, I guess. It’s just cosmetic damage I think. We don’t think anything is bent, but it still sucks, because everything’s expensive to fix. Oh well.<\/p>\n

IS IT TOO EARLY TO SAY YOU’RE OUT OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP PICTURE AFTER A NIGHT LIKE THIS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t look at it that way. Even last week, I didn’t really have that much fun here. I know I’d rather be doing something different on nights like this.<\/p>\n

I don’t know what to say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
