In a press conference when questioned, William Byron said, "Yeah, I mean, we definitely look at it. There’s no doubt about it. I look at Racing Reference and look at all the top 5s, top 10s, all that stuff. I think Truex has been running really well. It’s just a matter of us performing well. I feel like if we can perform at a high level, we put ourselves in position to run up front and get stage points.” Fans are certainly intrigued with what Byron had to say and are anticipating a lot of action in the next race.
