Noah Gragson Post-Race Thoughts: “It was a solid weekend of building, especially in practice and qualifying, for our Sunseeker Chevrolet. Qualifying went really well, and I’m proud of that. We just missed a little in the race, but we will keep building and learning. I’m still so super thankful for this team and look forward to the test tomorrow.”

Erik Jones, No. 43 Allegiant Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

Erik Jones Post-Race Thoughts: “It was an ok day for us on the Allegiant 43 Chevrolet. We got better all day and picked up some spots. We still have some work to do here; Richmond has been one of our tougher places, really, in the last year or so. We have some work to do still, but this was a step in the right direction.”
