- Scott cautioned that streaks can swing to other drivers before the playoffs, urging a focus on steady top-10s and stage points.
- Reddick said several wins were messy, citing a blown strategy at Daytona, a late wreck at EchoPark, a suspected loose wheel at COTA, and an alternator failure at Darlington.
