Quote
Indy Lights - Baltimore: We've heard from Carlos Munoz about the crash that eliminated him from the race earlier on:
"I don't really know what happened. I just braked and needed the car just to stop for the wall. I'm not sure if the car broke or just snapped. You know, I had a great car even though the weekend qualifying yesterday was bad. I feel really bad right now. What can I say? We still have two races to go. Everyone in the championship is really close. I have to go racing these last two races. I have to go change my mentality and go for a win."
