BRAD KESELOWSKI, No. 2 Reese/Draw Tite Ford Mustang – VICTORY LANE INTERVIEW – “The car was really good – this Ford Mustang. You know, Ford worked really hard in the offseason to build these cars and make them real strong and so far, so good. It’s just a great day for our team, awesome execution on pit road and big credit to Doug Yates and all the engine guys. Those guys work really hard and it’s just one of those days you dream of as a race car driver, where you’ve got a great car. I don’t know if we were as good as the 9, Chase Elliott. He was really strong, but he passed me there with about 200 to go and I watched him and studied him and kind of broke it down and knew what I had to do to hold him off with that fast of a car and we were able to pull it off that last run with the Reese/Draw Tite Ford.”
HOW IMPORTANT WAS THE WEDGE ADJUSTMENT AT THE END? “The temps were cooling off and the track was losing its rubber, and we were just losing grip. We weren’t as good as we needed to be there, so Paul was working on it to do the best we can and that’s what this team does – they never give up and I’m really, really proud of them.”
