• Suárez, driver of the No. 7 Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation started 15th after inclement weather canceled Saturday’s practice and qualifying sessions, forcing the starting lineup to be set by the NASCAR Cup Series rulebook. In the sixth race of the Chase, Suárez finished 13th, earning his 19th top-15 finish of the season. Suárez finished sixth in Stage 1, earning five stage points, and ran inside the top 15 for the majority of the first two stages. During the break following Stage 2, Suárez made two pit stops, costing the No. team valuable track position and dropping Suárez to 30th. The Monterrey, Mexico, native and the team never gave up, fighting their way back through the field and into the top 15 before the checkered flag.

Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 7 Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation Chevrolet Camaro for Spire Motorsports:

“It was a challenging day for us. The track was really bumpy, and we fought balance issues throughout the race. We had a good Stage 1, but the two pit stops in the final stage put us behind and made it tough to get track position back. My guys never gave up and kept working to make our car better. We kept fighting all the way to the end, and I’m proud of the effort this team put in to get us back into the top 15.”
