JEREMY BULLINS, Crew Chief – No. 21 Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Fusion – “The bright side is I feel like we had a really good car. We made a couple changes there to make it a better long run car and after a couple of laps it looked like it really had speed and he was starting to move back up through the field. It just didn’t go our way. Obviously, something happened with the engine. I’m not sure exactly what because it’s hard to tell what happened first, so we just got to the point where we couldn’t keep going. It’s unfortunate. We’ve got a lot of power, so we won’t complain and we’ll go on and get ready for the next one.”
FROM THE RECOVERY ON PIT ROAD, THIS WAS DEFINITELY A WORK IN PROGRESS: “Yeah it was. Forgive me because my voice has been gone all day and I woke up with a cold but just a great, great race car. I just want to give a shout out to all the pros that shop at Lowe’s and to the folks at Lowe’s Pro Services, to Chevrolet, Hendrick Motorsports and Valvoline because we have had an awesome, awesome start to the year. :
