Fernandez Quotes : Adrian Fernandez (#51 Tecate/Quaker State/Telmex Honda/Lola/Bridgestone): “Our strategy was that we decided to do five laps in the wet, and then if the conditions got better, we would do more laps at the end. Obviously, we timed it perfectly, and we were very happy. It really took three or four laps to figure out how the track was, so we were not worried at the point of the red flag. It's an advantage to start on the pole, but you're as susceptible as anybody to make a mistake. It's very tricky, and you just need to remember it's a long race. It should work in our advantage if I don't make any mistakes.”
