Obviously, I feel like he drove it in deep enough to where he had to come up the track into me. Brad (Keselowski)’s on my outside, maybe a half-lane up. I mean, I’ve got to turn at some point to get down. ![]() I think I’ve got the right to at least hold my lane. He was at my left rear going in there, I knew we were three-wide. We’ll have to look at it, but it laid down pretty flat pretty quick.”Īustin Dillon - Finished 34th: “I heard (Dale Earnhardt Jr.)’s replay, said that I came down a little bit. It’s just one of those things that happens every now and then. We brought a pretty good car and got it better throughout the day. We’ll have to figure out what it was, but, overall, I’m proud of the effort. We got the lead and had it for two laps and then we had our issue. Disappointing, but we don’t have a mark on the car. It’s a step in the right direction, but we just need to be better. Just lost too much on pit road and didn’t make good adjustments there at the end. Noah Gragson - Finished 22: “Decent day for our No. I feel like I should be pissed.”Ī noticeably frustrated Kyle Larson says he's "been cost a lot of good finishes" by Denny Hamlin throughout his career despite never having to apologize to him before about anything he's done on the race track. I’m not going to let it tarnish on track, but I am pissed. So, I’m sure he was in the right there as well. All the buddies know that he’s always right. Yes, this makes things sh- and awkward, whatever, he’s always right. Kyle Larson - Finished 21st: “(Denny Hamlin and I are) friends. It was a good day and hope to keep improving.” We had some restarts go our way and happy it played out for us. We capitalized a lot on strategy and some opportunities to get up to the top there at the end. It was a decent day for us.”Įrik Jones - Finished 9th: “It was a good day for the No. The guys did a good job on pit road to do that and the last few restarts I just tried to be aggressive and keep moving forward and got a few more spots. It worked out to where we pitted out in front of them. The strategy at Pocono is always fun, so it’s fun to kind of know what’s going on and know that you have to go run fast laps because the guys behind you are trying to do the same. We pitted and came out in front of a lot of those guys, so that helped us a lot. A lot of those guys pitted themselves into traffic and we were able to have clean air and click off faster lap times. We were mired in traffic all day and that makes it hard, and we struggled for handling but made a few changes at the end and that got the car pretty good right before the long green flag cycle and I could kind of run long. Harrison Burton - Finished 8th: “It was a good finish for us. All-in-all, it was a really strong day for our team.” ![]() We messed up every restart there at the beginning, and then nailed every one there at the end. ![]() It was just about timing those restarts there at the end. We took two tires and that gave us really good track position for when the cautions came out. The final stage when we ran long, we were running good lap times when we got clean air. The guys made some really good adjustments and we got better. We got it there in the middle stages of the race, but just wasn’t good enough to keep it. We didn’t have track position at the beginning. Ricky Stenhouse - Finished 7th: “It was an up-and-down day for the No. It was nice to stay out of the mess back there. Thank you to everybody supports me at (Joe Gibbs Racing) and Toyota, TRD. Ty Gibbs - Finished 5th: “It’s great to come home in the top-five. 4 car wasn't good in traffic during restarts to clear the leaders. Following his second-consecutive top-five finish, Kevin Harvick says the No.
