Hailie Deegan, No. 1 Toter Ford F-150

Start: 12th

Finish: 25th

• Deegan started the event from 12th in the Toter Ford F-150. Hot and humid weather conditions made for a very slick racing surface which Deegan battled in the opening laps before the first caution on lap 8 when she was 16th.
• On lap 21 under cation, she reported her F-150 was a little loose on entry while in the 18th spot.
• During the lap-31 caution, the California native reported she could use a small adjustment but was feeling more comfortable with the track and was in the 14th spot.
• On lap 52 under caution, she reported her Ford felt better after the most recent adjustments and was in the 23rd spot.
• At the end of Stage 2, Deegan was really happy with her truck’s handling and completed it in the 15th spot.
• Deegan started the final stage from 10th. She remained in the top-10 until she made a scheduled green-flag pit stop on lap 110.
• Shortly after returning to the track from the scheduled stop, Deegan felt tire chatter and returned to pit road for service. The crew discovered a punctured tire and Deegan returned to the field to complete the remainder of the race.
