Recapping Indianapolis
Bayne fought a tight handling condition throughout the 164-Lap race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and was involved in a late-race incident that ultimately led to a 40th-place finish.
QUOTE WORTHY
Bayne on racing in Pocono:
“I’m really looking forward to getting back to Pocono. We ran well there in the spring, especially with winning the ARCA race. It is a lot of fun to race at that track. The corners are all so different that you really need to be on your toes and have a perfect lap each lap. I’m excited to get there and give this AdvoCare Ford a good run.”
