Important Practice Notes
Christopher Bell - In an interview after practice, Christopher Bell said his car felt great, but it wasn't passing the "lap time test." He really liked how the No. 20 Toyota handled, but was searching for just a little more speed.
Ryan Blaney - The No. 12 Ford was a rocket ship in practice when it came to the long run. In 10-, 15-, 20-, 25-, and 30-lap averages, Blaney ranked as the fastest in the session.
William Byron - Willy B was confident after practice, but noted that the No. 24 needed long run speed. Byron has struggled at New Hampshire in his career, with zero top-10 finishes in seven attempts.
William Byron doesn't want to jinx anything for tomorrow, but he told @AlanCavanna he feels like his team has a handle on the track.
"I felt good, just trying to put the long run together. Overall, the one lap is good. I didn't push for that, but it shows our car has good pace."
