From the Cockpit:
Matt Kenseth: “I think that things are definitely going to be different this weekend at Dover. We’ve see track records being set, the pace of the races has been extremely fast, and tires have been a concern since we’ve had them overloaded. It’s just going to be a lot different with the set-ups and the new aero package we have in place. I think that all the cars are going to be so incredibly fast that it’s going to be even harder to pass and track position will be even more important than ever at Dover. I think that keeping the right-front tires from blowing out is also going to be important this weekend, so we’ll see how all these new changes come into play, but Dover is my favorite track and I’m excited to get there.”
From the Pit Box:
Jason Ratcliff: “Dover is one of my favorite tracks. I think it’s going to be a lot different there this weekend with the new rules package we have this season. It’s one of the tracks that I know we circled on the calendar when the year started thinking about all the different things that 2014 brought to the sport. I think Dover is going to be a place where we’re going to need to tackle it a little bit different than we have in the past because I feel that this new rules package is going to change a lot. Speeds have been higher almost everywhere we’ve been this season and I think we’ll see a huge change as well this weekend. I feel like we had a good handle on things last year at Dover, but with everything new, we’ll need to start over and see how we stack up.”
