Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 99 Kubota Chevrolet for Trackhouse Racing:

“We had a good day. I am very proud of my team. It’s especially good to get a good finish for Kubota in Iowa. We were fast, had great strategy and quick pit stops. The track was fun. It raced well. Honestly, it raced exactly how I thought it was going to. I thought it was good. It was a three-lane racetrack. People were able to pass, which is a good. I thought it was good, honestly. I’m pretty happy with the product that NASCAR brought.”
