00:00And Ryan Blaney comes up one spot short from locking himself into the championship four.
00:03I saw you get out of the car shaking your head.
00:06It seems like disbelief.
00:07What are you feeling in this moment?
00:08It's obvious disappointment.
00:09I mean, you had a great shot to win.
00:12I didn't have a very good last lap.
00:14Um, man, I thought I got into three hard and the 45 just blitzed up in there and it stuck
00:20for him, which was pretty impressive.
00:22But, uh, yeah, I hate to give one away there like that.
00:25You know, um, I don't know if we gave it away.
00:27I mean, we got the lead back after losing it on the restart and, um, yeah, just just
00:33last that didn't really play out for us.
00:35So, yeah, definitely stinks.
00:36I appreciate everybody on the 12th team for bringing a really fast race car had a great
00:40shot to go to Phoenix and still got one more chance.
00:43So we still got to look forward to that, but appreciate Menards and Ford for performance.
00:49Richmond advanced auto parts, body armor decks, imaging, Wabash, the worth group, everybody
00:54just has shame.
00:55I'll be picking through it all night.
00:58What I should have done different, probably, and that's just the way it goes.
01:01But we're all really proud of the effort, and hopefully we can bring it to him next
01:06week.
01:07I know there's disappointment right now, but you mentioned next week multiple times.
01:09You guys won last year to get into the championship four at Martinsville.
01:13So is it optimistic at this point or you're gonna have to sort through these feelings
01:17first?
01:18Uh, yeah.
01:19I mean, I'll it'll suck for the night and then and then, uh, look forward to Martinsville,
01:25you know, tomorrow morning.
01:26So we try to forget things quick.
01:28I've tried to do that more and more as I've gotten older and just kind of move on to the
01:31next thing.
01:32Good, bad or indifferent and focus on the next task.
01:34So this team will do it.
01:35But, yeah, I just I just can't say how proud I am of them coming in and understanding what
01:41we need to do.
01:42It's just a shame it didn't work out.
01:43But, yeah, like you said, we had good fortune in Martinsville last year, and hopefully we
01:48can bring the same kind of speed and be in contention to win.
