Ty Gibbs, Driver of the No. 54 Monster Energy Toyota Camry XSE:

“Dover is a tough track and is super quick. It’s concrete which is different from what we usually run on. We had a good start to the season, but haven’t finished as well as we would have liked too recently. Hopefully our Monster Energy Toyota Camry will be good and we’ll get back on track.”
