AJ Foyt Racing team president Larry Foyt says that he is happy with the progress that the team made over the course of the opening practice session on Friday for Sunday’s Firestone Grand Prix presented by RP Funding on the streets of St Petersburg.
Speaking to Paddock Eye following practice, Foyt said that he was happy with the progress that Kyle Kirkwood made over the course of the session as he was inside the top ten throughout the session and finished in 12th place.
Foyt said he hadn’t spoken to Dalton Kellett at the time of our interview and he believes that the Canadian brushed the wall.
As for Tatiana Calderon, Foyt said that the team just wants to see her continue her steady progress and get used to racing a car with power steering.
