Despite securing his career best finish, NASCAR Cup Series driver Ty Gibbs wasn't satisfied with the result.
Ty Gibbs placed his No. 54 Joe Gibbs Racing amongst the fastest cars in Saturday's qualifying. On Sunday's race, Gibbs finished in P4 securing his career-best finish. But he wanted more than the top-five finish.
Speaking to PNR Live, Gibbs stated his disappointment with the result.
"We didn't win, so I don't think there's a lot to be satisfied by, but we were really fast, I've got to get better on restarts, I really cost us some ground there," he said to Brett McMillan.
Josh Bilicki spun around and brought out a caution. Kyle Busch and Ty Gibbs were leading the pack at the restart.
When Allmendinger passed Busch on lap 57, he took over as the new leader. William Byron climbed into third place, replacing Gibbs.
AJ Allmendinger held off William Byron to take his victory at the Charlotte Roval. Byron came home to finish second, followed by Kyle Busch in third, Ty Gibbs in fourth and Joey Logano rounding off the top five finishers.
