Suárez Would Like Some Road Course Revenge As Cup Series Races Sunday at Sonoma Raceway

No. 99 CommScope Chevrolet driver Daniel Suárez is looking for a little revenge this weekend when the NASCAR Cup Series visits the road course at Sonoma (Calif.) Raceway.

The race marks the third road course race of the 2021 season.

Two weeks ago at Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas, Suárez felt like he had a sure top-10 car for the Cup Series debut on the track. Those dreams faded when transmission problems sent him behind the wall early in the race.

He hopes for better luck Sunday in Northern California where he has top-17 finishes in all three career Cup appearances. Suárez credits his road course success to racing go karts early in his career.

He’ll have to use all his racing acumen Sunday since the Cup Series drivers will begin the race with no practice or qualifying.

Sunday’s race will air on FS1 at 4 p.m.
