An Interview with:

Q. How?

CHASE ELLIOTT: I don't know, man. Everything worked out perfect for me. Had a great push through one and two. That kind of all started with the 6. Big run off of two. Seas kind of parted and just was able to keep my momentum up. That was really it.

Obviously we still had pretty good tires compared to those guys, but what a crazy finish. Hope you all enjoyed that. I certainly did. Really proud of our team. Had a really solid weekend, win or no win. Really nice to qualify really well.

We'll certainly enjoy this, man. This is pretty cool. Just never take this stuff for granted because they're hard to come by. Learned that the hard way. Always enjoy it. Always appreciate it.

Thanks to everybody at KBB. What a great partner. Been on board for this is our tenth year together, which is pretty cool. Chevrolet, everybody, Hendrick Motorsports. Boss, thanks, buddy. Appreciate it. Glad to be bringing one home.

Q. You said the seas parted, but you kind of had to put a little door to the 11. Were you thinking this is my only shot to make it happen?

CHASE ELLIOTT: I wasn't going to lift, so I didn't know what was going to happen. I figured at the end of the day, it was what it was at that point. We were both wide open corner exit. Wherever I ended up, I ended up. At that point, we were all committed.

Yeah, really cool just to be restart and somehow win on a green-and-white checkered. Pretty neat.
