“We couldn’t think of a better driver, who is better than Will Power to fill the shoes of the colon in Andreti and take the wheel of #26 Honda. Will is a terrible contestant whose record speaks for himself. Also, he is a great personality and we think he will culturally be a strong fit for the team.”
