KEVIN HARVICK – No. 4 Mobil 1 Ford Fusion – ANY IDEA WHAT LED TO THE TIRE GOING? “It started vibrating about four or five laps there before it blew out, and I was just trying to ride it to the end of the stage there. Obviously, it didn’t make it. The worst part was the medical response. It took them forever to get to the car. I thought we made that better, but obviously we haven’t. All in all, our Mobil 1 Annual Protection Ford was running good. We were just too loose right there. It’s not like we were even tight, so it either just cut the tire, or came apart or melted the bead.” ARE YOU OK? “Yeah, I’m fine.”

BRAD KESELOWSKI – No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion -- HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO FIND OUT WHAT BROKE? “No, they’ll have to take it apart. At the end we have to go to inspection and stuff, so we’re not allowed to look. I just know it was something major."
