Races July 2, 2025 99 Quaker State Chevrolet Caught in Major Wreck at EchoPark Speedway Date: June 28th, 2025 Event: Quaker State 400 Presented by Walmart (Round 18 of 36) Series: NASCAR Cup Series Location: Atlanta Motor Speedway (1.54-mile oval) Format: 260 laps, broken into three stages (60 laps/100 laps/100 laps) Start/Finish: 31st / 34th (Accident, completed 69 of 260 laps) Playoff Standing: 29th with 299 points Notes: Trackhouse Racing’s Daniel Suárez finished 34th in Saturday night’s 400-mile NASCAR Cup Series race at EchoPark (Atlanta) Speedway in Hampton, Ga. Daniel Suárez’s race ended early in the second stage after being eliminated in a massive accident and finishing 34th. The Mexico-native did not advance to the second round in the inaugural NASCAR In-Season Tournament, which began Saturday night. Suárez was involved in a major accident on lap 69, which damaged at least 17 of the field’s 40 cars. The Trackhouse driver was racing mid-pack when cars began spinning in front of him. The 99 group could not repair his car. All four Trackhouse Chevrolets started the race at the back of the field, preferring to focus on the race rather than qualifying setups. In the first stage, Suárez finished 17th. Seconds after the second stage began, contact between Denny Hamlin and John Hunter Nemechek on the backstretch triggered the accident that collected nearly half the field. The NASCAR Cup Series returns to action on Sunday, July 6, at the Chicago Street Course. Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 99 Quaker State Chevrolet Camaro for Trackhouse Racing: “The sad part for me was that our No. 99 Quaker State Chevrolet was very good. I was being patient, and I felt like we were coming through the field pretty well during Stage 1. I felt like our Chevy had potential. It was the start of Stage 2 and we didn’t get to race. It’s a shame. Our team did a very good job with the car and we just got caught up in the mess.”
