In the early laps, Tagliani was unable to conserve enough fuel, and team owner Paul Gentilozzi finally instructed his driver to run flat out. "When you have a racehorse, you have to let him run,'' Gentilozzi said after the race. Tagliani would lead through the first two fuel stops despite being forced to pit early both times, and pulled out a small margin.
