Today's NY Times has a good article on Gil today. Here is a link but you have to register (its painless).

Some out takes:

"I know that the outside perception is that Indy is not what it used to be just eight years ago,'' de Ferran said, "but I can tell you this: All I saw was that the stands were packed with people."

"I want to race against the best all the time. I want people like Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart to be part of the competition. I'm optimistic that it will happen."

De Ferran added that his aim was not to make history - "I don't want to be Napoleon"
