Matt Kenseth on racing at Richmond International Raceway:
“Richmond is one of my favorite tracks. We usually run pretty well there in the Nationwide car. I’ve won a Cup race at Richmond but I haven’t won a Nationwide race yet. We came really close last year but came up short. I’m excited to get back there this weekend. It’s great to have CitiFinancial on the car for the first time this year. They’re a great sponsor and we’re going to do everything we can to get them their first win of the year.”

Crew Chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at Richmond International Raceway:
“Short tracks are definitely a strong point for Matt and he has the record to prove that at Richmond. We tested at RIR a few weeks ago and it went really well. Matt’s been in our car twice this year and we’ve won once, so hopefully we can make it two out of three this weekend.”
