Ricky Stenhouse Jr. on Daytona:
“I’m looking forward to getting back to Daytona. Jimmy Fennig has been working really hard on our superspeedway cars since we left Talladega. Our success in past races at Daytona definitely gives us confidence heading into this weekend. A win this weekend would be huge as it would lock us into the playoffs.”
