Front Stretch

An Interview with:

Q. For years Ryan Blaney told me, I don't want to be a guy who wins one race a year. He's done it in back-to-back weeks. This multiple win thing is working out for you these days, isn't it?

RYAN BLANEY: Yeah, how about that? That was a lot of fun. Gosh, we just barely missed that wreck. Got to lineup on the front row, got a good push by the 7.

You never know how the end of these things is going to play out. Down the back, you don't know what lane is getting a bigger run. I guess someone got tangled up over there. Hopefully everyone is okay.

So cool. Second win of the year with Bodyarmor on the car, win at Daytona, everybody here. Thank you guys for coming. Really special. It's been a fun two weeks.

Q. How about that final restart that these fans here at Daytona were treated to, you and Buescher dueling it out for the final spot?

RYAN BLANEY: Yeah, the biggest thing is just getting the push, right, just trying to get a good push. Corey LaJoie gave me a good push two weeks in a row, gotten really good pushes on restarts, able to win the race, so thanks for that.

No, it really all started with the 7 giving me he a good push, then trying to hold off the 7 and Kevin and a couple other cars, 17. Awesome win for Bodyarmor, Menards, Advance Auto Parts, Ford. Looking forward to next week.

Q. What about the next week, the momentum the 12 team comes into the Playoffs with?

RYAN BLANEY: Yeah, got good monument. Nice to make it three in a row. We'll see.
