QUOTES

Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Daytona International Speedway:

“I feel honored for the opportunity to drive the No. 6 in the Daytona 500. The No. 6 has a lot of history for the Roush Fenway Racing organization and getting to drive it in the biggest race of the year is an amazing feeling. We have a fast No. 6 Ford Ecoboost Fusion. All of the Fords looked super strong during qualifying and practice. We just need to be in the right position in the final laps, and I feel confident that we can get our first Sprint Cup win.”

Crew chief Chad Norris on racing at Daytona International Speedway:

“Our No. 6 Ford Ecoboost Fusion has been fast all week. Ricky has done a great job getting accustomed to the feeling of the Cup car. We qualified in the eighth position which gives a great starting spot in the duels. Our strategy will be to stay up front, stay out of trouble, and put this No. 6 Ford Fusion in position to contend for the win.”
