BRAD KESELOWSKI – No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion – “It was just a really great finish to kind of just a so-so day. It takes a team effort to do that as well and that’s part of this sport and my guys did a great job.”

‘I just want to thank all our sponsors and everyone at the shop who works on the Stewart-Haas Racing cars. Man, that worked out really good. The car was pretty good on the restarts. Once we got clean air there at the end, it wound up being really good up front. I’m just really proud of our team. They did a great job.”

We kept getting faster throughout practice, and overall, our handling in our No. 44 Shaw's Ford was one of the best we've had all season as a team. We had a decent run in qualifying the first time out, but just needed a little bit more to advance into Round 2.
