| NASCAR CUP SERIES POCONO ORGANICS CBD 325 POCONO RACEWAY TEAM CHEVY RACE NOTES & QUOTES JUNE 26, 2021 ALEX BOWMAN, NO. 48 ALLY CAMARO ZL1 1LE – Race Winner WHAT WAS YOUR REACTION WHEN YOU SAW THE NO. 5 OF KYLE LARSON GOING INTO THE WALL?“Yeah, I hate to win one that way, but hell; yeah, I’ll take it. I’m super proud of this Ally No. 48 team. Man, we kind of gave the lead away. We were on two tires and just got super tight. I tried to hold him off as long as I could. I can’t say enough about everybody at Team Hendrick right now, the body shop, engine shop, chassis shop. Top to bottom, everybody is putting race cars on the race track. Greg (Ives, crew chief) and all the guys did a really good job. We didn’t run that good all day, so I’m kind of in shock. I don’t know what to say to you guys. Hell, yeah, so cool. To see all the fans out here. Always like to come to Pocono. It’s a cool place, beautiful weather, great day for a race. Heck, yeah, I’ll take it.” YOU APOLOGIZED TO YOUR GUYS. FOR ONCE YOU HAD THE LUCK ON YOUR SIDE“Yeah, I don’t know what to think about that. ‘Bad Luck Bowman’ had some luck there. I mean, the No. 5 beat us. Their misfortune, it happens. That’s part of the sport. I’ll take it.” HOW ABOUT WINNING IN FRONT OF THESE POCONO FANS?“Cool. The place is packed. I went for a run in the infield. Typical Pocono, everybody called me William Byron (laughter). Just enjoy it. So cool to see all the fans out, a bunch of fist pumps and high-fives running through the campground. I’m sure my trainer is going to make me run again in the morning, so I’ll probably see some of you guys in the campground in the morning.” |
