Where do things stand with Ty (Gibbs) right now and what are the expectations for the next six races?

“I think they are in a good place. We had some meetings this week and they were all productive meetings. The guts of that are going to be confidential.”

Did all the JGR drivers get to speak and did leadership participate?

“All the drivers had an opportunity to speak and try to come up with a plan. We did our best to come up with one.”

Looking back five or six days later, is there anything you felt like you should have done differently?

“Certainly, absolutely. I definitely got hot under the collar and it went too far on my end. There was things I wish I could have done a little bit differently.”
