Austin Dillon Drives the Rheem Chevrolet to a Third-Place Finish in Front of a Hometown Crowd at Charlotte Motor Speedway "We did a really good job adjusting the car over the course of the race.

KEVIN HARVICK – No. 41 Hunt Brothers Pizza Ford Mustang – HOW DID YOU VIEW THE LAST RESTART? “It was a tough decision for our Hunt Brothers Ford team. I knew that we had the 22 behind us if we were on the top and he pushed me a little bit and then kind of laid off there getting into one. The 12 had the best car on the restart getting going. He’s the one who helped us get the lead and I knew I was gonna have my hands full, but he just beat me there at the end and we wound up getting second.”
