- Key Takeaway: Andrés Pérez de Lara and the McLaren Transport team faced a challenging day in Michigan. The No. 44 truck made slight contact with the wall in practice, but Pérez de Lara was still able to run well after qualifying mid-pack. Lacking the assist of drafting help, the No. 44 was mired in traffic for most of the race. In the final run to the checkered, the Mexico City native finished the event in 19th-place.
- Andrés Pérez de Lara’s Post-Race Thoughts:
“Unfortunately, today just wasn’t our day. It was just super difficult to make any moves out there with nobody to help push me. We were a little too loose to drive to the front, but I’m proud of the fight from our guys. I’m really looking forward to our next race together in San Diego. The next two races are ones that I’ve been looking forward to for a while, so I’m hopeful we can make the most of it there.”
