Power hopes to be more competitive at Milwaukee

Will Power, driver of the #8 Aussie Vineyards Team Australia IndyCar thinks he has a better chance this weekend at the Milwaukee Mile than he has had at other IRL ovals because he ran there before in a Champ Car.

“I’ve definitely been looking forward to Milwaukee for lots of reasons," said Power.

“It’s the only oval on the schedule that I’ve been to before and I ran reasonably well there in the Champ Car.

“My aim is that the Aussie Vineyards car will be a bit more competitive at Milwaukee than the other ovals.

“Because Milwaukee is quite a flat oval, you run a lot of downforce and the set-up almost resembles a road course package. So our team will not be quite as far behind the top teams with all their oval experience as would usually be the case.

“We hung on there in the end to get a solid result at Indy despite a problem with the right rear wheel towards the end. This year is going to be tough on the ovals but our goal is to be continually improving so that we keep getting closer and closer to having a consistently fast package."
