Johnny Sauter on Friday’s Race at Daytona International Speedway: “We had a rocket ship,” said Sauter. “Really, we were in good position all night long and thought I made a good move at the end there and unfortunately when they wrecked, I just had nowhere to go. Hats off to Niece Motorsports for bringing a hot rod."
Race Recap: After leading the charge in practice on Thursday, Sauter advanced to the final round of Friday’s qualifying session, ending up with a second-place starting spot. At the drop of the green, Sauter took the lead, leading the first lap and ultimately winning the opening stage of the race. Sauter paced the field for 24 laps before being collected in one of the many accidents. The team could not repair the significant damage before the DVP clock expired, which left the No. 45 team with a 29th-place finish.
