Ford Performance NASCAR: Keselowski Tops Saturday’s First Cup Practice

Ford Performance NSCS Notes and Quotes
Hollywood Casino 400 Advance – Kansas Speedway
Saturday, October 17, 2015

Brad Keselowski, driver of the No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion, won the pole yesterday and led the first practice session today with a speed of 189.960 mph. Keselowski spoke about what he liked about his Fusion and his concerns about the pit stall he will have in tomorrow’s race.

BRAD KESELOWSKI – No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion – WHAT DID YOU LEARN IN THIS SESSION? “The track is changing. Today it’s a lot cooler than it’s supposed to be tomorrow. We know the grooves and all of that is going to change, so we have some speed but we have to keep working on it because you’re gonna see comers and goers as the track changes and we don’t want to be a goer. We want to be one of those guys that comes to the front and stays in the front, so we’ve got to keep working.”

YOU WEREN’T ALLOWED TO PICK YOUR PIT STALL UNTIL 42ND DUE TO A PENALTY. HOW MUCH OF AN EFFECT DO YOU THINK THAT WILL HAVE ON YOUR RACE? “I don’t know. That’s a good question for when the race is over, but I think right now it is what it is and we’ll make the most of it.”

WHAT ARE YOUR CONCERNS WITH THAT PIT STALL? “You’re just worried about getting hit – one of your crew guys getting hit or your car getting hit, all of the above, so you just have to be careful.”
