DENNY HAMLIN, No. 11 Sport Clips Toyota Camry, Joe Gibbs Racing - Starting Position: 2nd - How special would a win at California’s Auto Club Speedway mean to you? “It’s top of my list since 2013. Just as a race track, it’s been a great one for us. We’ve come very close. It’s been tough on me physically and mentally. You want to kind of overcome and get a win at a track like this, for sure.”
KEVIN HARVICK – No. 4 Busch Ford Fusion – “It wasn’t bad at all. I don’t think I did a very good job of just relaying what I needed as far as what I was feeling. It was too tight there the second and third rounds. I thought it was OK after the second round and I had overdrove it, but the third round it just got a little bit tighter. I should have gone with my gut and loosened the car up, but that’s what happens sometimes when you run fast in the first round you get a little bit gun shy, but the car is driving really good and everything should be fine.”
KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 TARGET CHEVROLET SS – POLE WINNER - YOU CHANGED UP YOUR LINE THERE WAS THAT WHAT IT TOOK TO GET THE POLE? “I think so. I haven’t seen a lap tracker, but I felt like I messed up there in (Turns) 1 and 2 and I got a little bit loose off the wall on entry and it got me to split the seam in (Turns) 1 and 2, but I was able to get committed to wide-open pretty good off of (Turn) 2 and then, yeah, I hadn’t run up high in (Turns) 3 and 4 at all in practice or qualifying here."

A lot of people out there, they love the fire suit. I love the paint scheme of the car. I think the car looks awesome. Honestly, I haven't been with someone that say, Hey, I don't really like the 19 Toyota Camry this weekend, because that thing looks awesome."
