David Malukas in the No.4 Clarience Technologies Chevrolet says that the hard work AJ Foyt Racing has been doing since the start of the season is beginning to show.
Malukas qualified for the Greatest Spectacle In Racing lasy weekend in seventh place and came home in second place.
Speaking to Paddock Eye after qualifying second for the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix presented by Lear, the Chicago native said:
Yeah, I mean, we’ve had a slower start to the season, but for me it’s just coming in with a new team, new guys, and we’re trying to understand each other and understand the car and the setup. I think for all the meetings and things, I was just saying in the interviews before, I was waiting for the month of May to kick off because you’re with the guys every single day and can really build on something, and of course obviously the 500, oval setup, it’s a very different car, and I think the Foyt car has also been stronger than previous years, but that doesn’t go away from all the work we’ve been doing in the beginning of the season. We were able to hone down, have a lot of time to look through it and really put things forward and start kind of getting a connection with everybody, and now coming into Detroit, I was very happy post-May that I knew our results would come. We just kept our heads down, and I think all that hard work that we’ve put in is really showing.
