JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell/Pennzoil Ford Mustang – HOW DID YOU GET THERE AT THE END AND WHAT DID YOU NEED FOR TRUEX? “Well, I needed him to go slower (laughing), but that’s not his job. We had a rough start to this thing. The guys did a good job fixing it up to where we were competitive at the end and had a shot to win, so that’s all you can ask for.

CHASE ELLIOTT, NO. 9 NAPA AUTO PARTS CAMARO ZL1 – Finished 4th - HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR RUN TONIGHT? “We had a really solid car. It was a solid race all around. We just needed a little bit more there at the end and needed to not give up control to get to Martin (Truex Jr.) in those last 40 to 50 laps. We just needed to finish a little stronger. I think I have some work to do on my end to make sure I’m keeping up with the track, giving the right information and not getting behind. I feel like I’ve made some mistakes the last couple of weeks and have just gotten a little off.”
