“The rain must have washed away the rubber we built up on the top (of the track), and that was obviously the fastest way around. We had a good race car. It's just frustrating to run second. I'd rather run fifth.”
“I am looking forward to the rest of the year and hunting that No. 8 car [of Truex] down for the championship, ... We had a great run there early in the year and we are taking back the same car, so hopefully we will have the same success, if not better.”

“Consistency is still going to play out in the end. Dover is a tough race track. It's my second time being here. We didn't fare too well in the spring, but we've reacted pretty good. We've bounced back, and I think the car's pretty good this weekend.”
“I hate to gain points like that, but that's plain racing luck, ... We have had bad luck this year, also. He will be able to bounce back, and that just makes for an even closer points race.”
