It's just unbelievable what happened this morning. Out of respect for Gonzalo and his family, the drivers stuck together and decided to have an afternoon of silence. It's the least we can do. It's the last thing we ever expect to happen, especially at a place like Laguna Seca.

On behalf of all members of Team KOOL Green, I'd like to express our condolences to the Rodriguez family and members of Team Penske on the tragic loss of Gonzalo Rodriguez in a practice crash during preparations for Sunday 's CART Champ Car race at Laguna Seca Raceway. In truth, their loss is our loss. Rest assured that this fine young man will not be forgotten.
