Ryan Blaney

Pit Lane Interview

Q. Ryan Blaney comes home in sixth. We saw the restart contact there with Denny, get into the fence. How much damage was done to the car?

RYAN BLANEY: Yeah, I don't know. (Indiscernible), but at least we were able to still run sixth at least. Overall a really good day. I thought we got a little better all day. By the last run or so, I thought I was a top-three car for sure. What happened on the restart kind of put us back.

Proud of everybody for recovering, Advance Auto Parts for being with us, Menards, Ford, Ford Racing, everybody who helps us out.

Probably one of the better spring races we've had in a couple years. Really proud of that effort. Really good day on pit road. Those guys did a great job of staying in it, doing a really good job.

Yeah, good run today. Wish it could have been a little bit better. Looking forward to Bristol.
