Coke Zero Sugar 400 – Daytona International Speedway: Post-Race
No. 1 DC Solar Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
Start: 27th
Finish: 30th
Standings: 22nd (91 points behind 16th; final playoff spot)

Notes:

  • McMurray was running eighth when he was involved in a multi-car accident on lap 66 that caused heavy damage to the right front suspension and forced the No. 1 DC Solar team to retire early from the race.
  • The race was slowed by 10 cautions for a total of 46 laps and one red flag, and the lead changed 25 times among 16 drivers.

“Just a super disappointing way to end our night. We had a pretty good DC Solar Chevy and we were just trying to stay out of trouble. We had to make a couple of extra pit stops early on to address an issue with the axle seal, so we were just trying to race back to the front. Like a typical Daytona race, we were just at the wrong place at the wrong time. I hate it for everyone that spends so much time and effort on these cars to have an early exit like that.”

Next:
MENCS teams will head to Kentucky Speedway next week for the Quaker State 400 on Saturday, Jul. 14. NBC, PRN affiliates and SiriusXM NASCAR Channel 90 will have live coverage beginning at 7:30 p.m. ET.
