Noah Gragson, No. 42 Sunseeker Resort Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
START: 32ND
FINISH: 22ND
POINTS: 33RD
Noah Gragson Post-Race Thoughts: “Decent day for our No. 42 Sunseeker Resorts Chevy team. Just lost too much on pit road and didn’t make adjustments there at the end. It’s a step in the right direction, but we just need to be better. We we don’t have a mark on the car – clean race. We just need to be better.”
Erik Jones, No. 43 US Air Force Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
START: 24TH
FINISH: 9TH
POINTS: 28TH
Erik Jones Post-Race Thoughts: “It was a good day for the No. 43 U.S. Air Force Chevy. I thought we had some good speed. We capitalized a lot on strategy and some opportunities to get up to the top there at the end. We had some restarts go our way and were happy it played out for us. It was a good day and hope to keep improving. Obviously, we wish we were fighting for that playoff spot – we’re in a must-win. But we need some more speed to get into a winning position on tracks like this. Daytona (International Speedway) is obviously going to be an opportunity, but we need another step going to a place like Michigan (International Speedway) coming up to contend for wins. We made big gains – we went from a 25th place team to a top-12 team, I’d say, right now. Just hope we can find a way to take that next step.”
