The No. 40 team was able to get Thompson back on track, but a tire rub from the damage caused a flat left front tire on the backstretch that ultimately ended the rookie’s 2022 season debut.Thompson on his season debut at Daytona: “Tough luck tonight for our No. 40 Worldwide Express team. That’s the nature of Daytona, though - you can do nothing wrong and still get collected. It’s unfortunate, but I can’t thank everyone at Worldwide Express, GlobalTranz, Unishippers, and Thompson Pipe Group for the support and opportunity to race at Daytona.” About Niece Motorsports:Niece Motorsports is owned by United States Marine Corps Veteran Al Niece.
