NASCAR Cup Series

For the second-straight week, Ryan Newman and the No. 6 team put together a solid result, finishing ninth under the lights Saturday night at Richmond Raceway in the Roush Performance Ford Mustang.

"We had a meeting on Monday and talked about what we needed to do here at Richmond Raceway as a team and then we came here and we did it, so I am really proud of everyone on this Richard Childress Racing team. We had a really fast AAA Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 tonight, especially during the last run. I think we actually had a little something for at least the top three spots. "

Camry driver Martin Truex Jr. was victorious in Saturday night’sToyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway, winning his first MonsterEnergy NASCAR Cup Series event in 2019.

JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford Mustang (Finished 2nd)“We had a car that was capable of winning for the third week straight and we didn’t win. That part is frustrating. We need to clean up some mistakes on our end."

AUSTIN DILLON, NO. 3 AAA COATINGS CAMARO ZL1 – Finished 6th“We had a really fast car. I think we actually had a little something for at least the top three spots. We had a little bit of a mess-up on our last pit stop and lost some track position. But we passed some good cars there at the end with Kyle (Busch) and (Brad) Keselowski. We had a really fast car. I’m really proud of these guys, the AAA team. I just wish we could have been a little further forward to see what I had. I saved a lot of my stuff for the end and was ready for that last run. But, we didn’t have enough.”

After a three way battle in the closing laps, Truex holds off Logano and Bowyer to win the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway.

Kevin Harvick earned the pole for the Toyota Owners 400 in Friday night’s Busch Pole Qualifying at Richmond Raceway, and he gets to keep it.

KURT BUSCH, NO. 1 GLOBAL POKER CAMARO ZL1 – Qualified 3rd: “I thought it was three good runs. The car had a good bit of rear grip to it, which has been our struggle, so I’m really happy that today’s practice run and the qualifying runs today showed us that the car’s got the grip level. Now we just need to make sure the balance stays with it.

On Friday afternoon at Richmond Raceway, Harvick got through the corners better than everyone else in winning the unofficial pole position for Saturday’s Toyota Owners 400 at the .75-mile track.
