Martinsville Recap: Christopher Bell started 32nd based on a random draw and was able to make up some ground early on before handling became an issue on the No. 95 Toyota. The team tried different adjustments, but nothing seemed to be what Bell needed. Bell spent the race gaining as much experience as he could behind the wheel and ultimately finished 28th in his first NCS start at Martinsville.

Christopher Bell: “Homestead is a great track. It is really slick, wide and we can run all over. I won a Truck Championship there and with the current rules package that should relate pretty well. I’m excited to get there and see what we’ve got.”
