Ryan Blaney

Pit Lane Interview

Q. You finally get the lead, the caution comes out. What goes through your mind at that point?

RYAN BLANEY: Oh, no. I thought we finally had the race won. I don't really know. Have to watch the replay of how that yellow came out, watch it back.

We did a good job. Great strategy call of kind of running long, giving us time to get down, run down the 45, a lot of those guys that short pitted. It was a great call.

Great car. Great Dutch Boy Menards Ford Mustang. Really fast.

Never really got to control the race. I feel like nothing ever really went our way. Pit road, we got to work on a little bit. Caution coming out during the cycle set us way back. I felt like we just kept making up spots.

Really proud of the 12 folks for giving me a fast car. Just really wasn't meant to be. I really wanted and would have liked to have won here. That would have been really neat. Just wasn't meant to be. Proud of the effort. We'll keep plugging along.
