This is now the second year that the hybrid will be at Toronto. I wanted to get your reflection on the nuances of working the hybrid system and the re-gen and how that works out at Toronto. Do you feel it gives you any advantages?<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><b>KYLE KIRKWOOD:<\/b>\u00a0<i>Certainly it&#8217;s a new aspect for drivers and teams to get right. It&#8217;s created in no doubts some headaches for us trying to figure it out. The good team does it well, right? I think we did it really well last year. We clearly got a handle on it.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>This year I haven&#8217;t seen numbers, but I&#8217;m sure they increase the energy limit that you can have for a given lap. That means we will need to change up the strategy a little bit so you can utilize it the best way.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>It&#8217;s still a work in progress, we&#8217;re still building, figuring out as much as we can about the system.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>Honestly, I love it. I think it&#8217;s a good thing that there&#8217;s something new in the series and we&#8217;re building on it and we have to focus on it. It is worth quite a bit of lap time to get it right.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>It is very driver-involved. Yes, the team can get it right, they can tell me what to do, but if I don&#8217;t get it right in the car, if I do something wrong, that means I&#8217;m hurting everybody in general, right?<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>It&#8217;s created a fun dynamic that the team has to figure it out, then the driver still has to apply it and learn how to use it themselves.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>Now we&#8217;re, what, a year and a bit in since we first had it. I&#8217;d say we&#8217;ve gotten a really good handle on it and it will be interesting to see how it plays out this weekend with the added energy.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><b>Motorsports Journal:<\/b>\u00a0You seem to do really well with street courses, hybrid and everything. Seems like you have it all melded in. Good drivers love to watch other good drivers do well. You want to applaud them, recognizing how a season like Alex Palou is having, you have to applaud it because it is so tremendous. How much super glue will it take to keep him out about two races so that this becomes a points race again?<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><b>KYLE KIRKWOOD:\u00a0<\/b><i>He&#8217;s really strong. I don&#8217;t know. You might have to weld him to something. I&#8217;m not sure if super glue is going to stop him.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>I&#8217;m sure we can get a bunch of drivers together to lock him in a room or something for a weekend. I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s going to do much in this championship race.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><b>Motorsports Journal:<\/b>\u00a0It&#8217;s going to take &#8230; some violence?<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><b>KYLE KIRKWOOD:\u00a0<\/b><i>Again, to your point, as racing drivers, we like to see each other succeed. Of course, we don&#8217;t want to see failures within ourselves. In some ways when somebody&#8217;s doing something like Palou has done, it&#8217;s an incredible thing. I think maybe the viewers don&#8217;t recognize as much as they should of what somebody like that is doing in this series.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>In most case scenarios, what we&#8217;ve done this season prior to Iowa would be an amazing championship run. We&#8217;d be leading the championship in most seasons. This season he&#8217;s just done something incredible, right?<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>I think people shouldn&#8217;t look at it as a negative, like it&#8217;s making it boring. That&#8217;s not the case. What you&#8217;re witnessing is greatness in action. We&#8217;re doing everything we can to try and come back to him, which we&#8217;ve done a good job to do, but it still hasn&#8217;t been enough.<\/i><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><i>Yeah, it&#8217;s incredible. So in many ways, yeah, it would be nice if he took a couple weekends off and we can come back to him. You know what, I love racing. I think he&#8217;s a wonderful person.
