"Proud of the effort"- Ryan Blaney says after finishing second at Homestead
In Sunday's Cup Series race at Homestead, Ryan Blaney proved that his No.12 Ford is incredibly efficient, especially during a long-running race.
Blaney is the only Team Penske car running in contention for the Championship and led 53 laps during Sunday's race.
With only six laps remaining, Blaney slipped into second place behind Christopher Bell. He sped and challenged Bell for the win but despite making up time, he still fell 1.185 seconds short at the finish line.
After the race, the No.12 driver stated that he was proud of the effort he and his team had put in:
"It got a little cooler at the end, and we never really found the front-end speed and they did. We ran out of laps a little bit. I am proud of the effort. It was a really good day, we just got beat a little bit there at the end.” he said (via NASCAR Post-race interview)
The 29-year-old also stated that he "ran out of laps" to catch Bell and he feels confident going into Martinsville.
