Meanwhile, his driver, Conor Daly, ran into a few issues at the recent Daytona 500. And he took to social media to address the same.
Just didn’t have a car to compete today. No rear view mirror from lap 1 either. Learned a great deal in the first 15 laps up in the top lane. Fun to race with the guys. Cycled forward a bit but then got dropped easy. Race was over from then on. Nice to make it to the end! P29.

Solid debut! Stayed out of trouble and brought her home. Be interested to hear your thoughts on the differences between the two 500 mile races.
