Cole Custer talked about the bad pit-stop that put him in this position, “Yeah, we just got back there, from a bad pit stop. I don’t know exactly what happened. Just trying to work our way up there. Had a really fast Haas Automation Ford Mustang.”

Speaking on what led to the incident with Ryan Sieg, “I mean, I tried to side draft him coming off 4. And then, I probably got into his left rear a little bit. Not bad at all. Then he just right reared us going into turn 1 and that was about it.”
