Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 99 Pitbull/Freeway Insurance Chevrolet Camaro for Trackhouse Racing:

“The conditions were perfect. I don’t think it had anything to do with the track. The track was good, the car was really good. For how quick I lost the car, I think I had a tire going down or something because it happened instantly. My car wasn’t loose and I didn’t have a warning or anything. It’s unfortunate to be out of the race this early at a racetrack that we normally run very well at.”
