From the Cockpit:

Christopher Bell: “Phoenix has been a great track for me in the past.  We won with our backs against the wall in 2018 to make the Playoffs and I’ve lead laps in almost every Xfinity race at Phoenix.  We had a good run at Vegas last weekend and I’m really looking forward to building on that this weekend.”
