- Key Takeaway: Andrés Pérez de Lara and the Acceptance Insurance team put together a solid outing in Indianapolis. Pérez de Lara qualified the highest out of his Niece Motorsports teammates with his fourth top-10 start of the season, and just barely missed out on extra points by finishing 11th in stage one and two. The No. 44 Silverado was in position to capture a top-10 finish, but got tangled up with a lapped truck with less than five laps to go. Pérez de Lara crossed the finish line in 11th-place.
- Andrés Pérez de Lara’s Post-Race Thoughts:
“I had a really fun night here in IRP. I think our truck was really, really fast, so it was a solid day overall. I wish we could have kept our top-10, but we just got caught up in a mess with a lapped truck at the end which really killed our chances at getting it. It’s very frustrating to lose it there in the last couple laps after such a strong and solid day, but we’ll take the positives out of tonight. It’s good to run like that on a short track, and we’ve got two more ahead of us, so hopefully we can keep it up.”
