motorcycle all weekend, rain or
shine. Even after the crash when
I got back out there and I was
just kind of cruising around. It
was kind of a reaffirmation. I still
like doing this. There was a lot
of fans that came out and a lot
of people around the race track
cheering for us and it was good

And this time around, Beau-

the form of an electrical problem
that fortunately sorted itself out.
Despite his efforts he was un-
able to run down his teammate
and settled for second.
"Yeah, we had a little electrical
problem there the first, third lap
or something like that," Beaubier
said. I pulled over. I tried to get
to the side of the track because
it was sputtering on the straight.
I couldn't go wide open on the
straight and I didn't want to get
hit from the back or anything. It
was kind of a bummer. I know
how hard my team works and for
something little like that, it's just
unlucky is what it comes down
to…I switched the electronic
stuff off and I just kept going and
tried to make up as much points
as I could. I think it's good to get
out of here with good second-
place points. We got the win
earlier today. Just got to thank
my team for working so hard and
move on to Barber."
Once again, the young Lewis
made an appearance on the final
step of the podium, a great effort
for the rookie.
