HMS President Jeff Andrews: "We have a lot of respect for the processes and the tolerances. We work hard to make sure our cars that are within that when we get to the track. This was an instance where we were close, we attempted to fix it and it (initially) did not get closer." https://t.co/uGKYePQUee
