CHASTAIN MAKING DEBUT AT ROAD AMERICA

ELKHART LAKE, Wisc. – Ross Chastain will hit the road at Road America for the first time this weekend.

Chastain, one of the spotlighted drivers of the Xfinity Series season, will run his first race over the fast and winding 14-turn, four-mile course.

“I understand the track is a challenge, and I’m anxious to get there,” Chastain said. “I like road racing, and Road America is a track I’ve heard about and read about for a long time. It looks like a beautiful setting for a race course.”

With 11 races remaining in the Xfinity season, Chastain sits 14th in driver points. This weekend he will be in the JD Motorsports with Gary Keller No. 01 G&K Services Chevrolet.

Chastain is third in series rookie points.

Road America practice is scheduled at 2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. (ET) Friday. Qualifying is set for 12:15 p.m. Saturday, with the race to follow at 3 p.m.
