Quote:

“On returning from injury: “I’ve had a lot of luck before this year and I’ve never hurt myself badly, but you can’t think about the injury when you’re out there racing. You can’t be tentative, you can’t be careful. There’s no sense in being out there if you are. I guarantee you I won’t be slow.”"

“On finally winning at WX: “I kind of closed the book on that. I felt like I should’ve won the first three years. It was more of a relief than anything. Everyone knows it’s the biggest race of the year and there was so much pressure to do well.” “
