AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Ellsworth Advisors Chevrolet
Start: 3rd
1st Stage: 12th
2nd Stage: 31st
Finish: 5th
“Overall, it was a hard-fought day. I’m proud of the guys for fixing the No. 16 Ellsworth Advisors car up after the damage. I felt like it was really fast. We were a lap down and had to fight back. We had really good strategy and we were able to get back on the lead lap and turn it into a great finish. I’m proud of this race team. I think we might have had a race-winning car without the damage, but to fight back for a top-five finish is really important for this race team to keep the momentum up and also qualify for the Dash 4 Cash going into Martinsville, a track that we know we are really fast at.”

Justin Haley, No. 11 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevrolet
Start: 13th
1st Stage: 4th
2nd Stage: 3rd
Finish: 8th
“We have consistently had a super fast No. 11 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevrolet every week so far this season. We ran second for a while and stayed in the top four most of the day. We just couldn’t quite get the handling of the car right during pit stops. I’m so proud of the fight in this No. 11 team. We just haven’t gotten the finishes we deserve.”

Jeb Burton, No. 10 State Water Heaters / Nutrien Ag Solutions Chevrolet
Start: 2nd
1st Stage: 10th
2nd Stage: 8th
Finish: 25th
“We struggled at the beginning a little bit. I felt like we had a top-six car there in the second stage. We kept working on it with each pit stop, but then I went three wide and I had a tire go down. We went down a lap fixing damage, but we were able to get the lap back. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to get the finish I felt we should have had.”
