“This Richard Childress Racing team did a great job today. Our Whelen Chevrolet needed rear grip early in the race and my crew chief Jeff Stankiewicz made changes that really improved the handling. Our pit crew was really good all day long. We were in position to score another solid finish, a top-five or maybe even better, and just got turned around. It stinks but we’ll bounce back next week at Michigan.”

Austin Hill and the No. 21 Bennett Transportation & Logistics / Ace Doran Chevrolet Team Tally Solid Top-10 Finish at Indianapolis

“We had a solid day today in our Bennett Transportation & Logistics / Ace Doran Chevrolet. After practice and qualifying yesterday afternoon, we were feeling pretty confident. When we fired off, we struggled with rear lateral grip and it started coming to me at the end of Stage 1. We just continued to struggle with that for the entire race. My team made some adjustments that helped with the lateral in high speed corners as we got into Stage 2 but we just didn’t have the car to get all the way up front. I’m glad we were able to bring home a solid top 10. I’m looking forward to getting to Michigan next weekend.”
