The Indiana native shared a tweet with his fans later in the day where he reflected on his race. He also shared a video revealing the amount that was raised for his charity, Turn For Troops. He said,

"United Rentals Turns for Troops raised $4,500 today. P7 finish for the United Rentals #15. Great job by our crew; really good strategy, got a little bit of luck too. But certainly had the pace. Obviously Pato was at a lightning at the restart and was able to work through the field. Just some of the things I couldn't so just lost a little bit of distance to him. Overall a really solid day for us. We weren't as fast as we needed to be, and we struggled with the car a lot this weekend. But we managed it, and we made it home, so we'll take it. P7."

"Success is measured in many different ways, and when you look at wins, maybe it's not enough, but I've been fortunate to have a long career here. But hopefully there's still a ways to go." Rahal said
"Three hundred races—I think what I'm most fortunate about is to have been able to stay, knock on wood, pretty healthy through those times, and hopefully that will continue as well,” he further added."

With this achievement, Graham Rahal joined the likes of Scott Dixon, who also completed 410th IndyCar race starts at the same event.
