There was a little bit (of contact) with Tony trying to get by me. One time in the middle of (turns) 3 and 4, I think he hit me four or five times and I couldn't get any gas because my tires were off the ground. That's when he finally got by me on the inside.
More Quotes from Jimmie Johnson:
I'm happy for Chad, especially because he hasn't had a chance to enjoy Victory Lane. His cars have been winning races but he was, unfortunately, at home.Jimmie Johnson
The grip will be less now than then (race weekend). We can get close on balance, but the real important thing for us is to work through some trends and have two days to try things that we can't on a race weekend.

I'm proud of this race team. These guys continue to work their butts off through adversity, making the best of a bad situation. We almost won another race today. We're doing everything we need to do. We won the Daytona 500 and maybe we'll win the championship.
Jimmie Johnson
Definitely we wish we had everybody back. There's no doubt that we've lost something. But the people in place did such a good job of training their team that we've been able to move along, win races and still vie for a championship.

It's part of our sport, ... It's kind of like going to a football game, and you hope you see a big hit or a big tackle. It's part of the theater that's involved with our sport it's part of what draws fans in. If we were out there in go-karts running 10 miles an hour, they wouldn't be watching. It's part of the risk. Of course, I don't want anybody to crash, I don't want to crash, but we've made a lot of gains in the safety department so that we are having wrecks and everybody is walking away.
Jimmie Johnson
I'm proud of our team. Starting in the inside is a big advantage. We will get a great pit selection so we have that benefit to look forward to as well.
