Following Sunday\u2019s (April 13) Cup race at Bristol Motor Speedway, Daniel Suarez<\/a>, driver of the No. 99 Chevy Camaro, reacted to a shocking tire debacle. He took to X (formerly Twitter) and posted his team\u2019s view of the incident.<\/p>\n It all happened during a pit stop in the 500-lap event. Legacy Motor Club driver John Hunter Nemechek<\/a> happened to have parked his No. 42 Camry several stalls behind Suarez\u2019s pit box at the time.<\/p>\n Right then, a detached tire came rolling down from Nemechek\u2019s all the way to Suarez\u2019s, where the latter\u2019s team was busy changing tires for the Trackhouse Racing icon.<\/p>\n Luckily, both Milan Rudanovic (Fueler) and Seth Gajdorus (Rear Changer) narrowly escaped getting hit by the rogue tire. It bounced off the rear end of Suarez\u2019s car, and his crew continued with their pit stop like nothing had happened.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n Reflecting on the same, Daniel Suarez wrote,<\/p>\n \u201cAfter a race like today\u2019s, this video puts everything into perspective! So glad none of my guys got hurt by that tire, especially Seth and Milan.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Daniel Suarez is currently in his ninth full season in the NASCAR Cup Series<\/a> and fifth driving for Trackhouse Racing. He has delivered one top-five and one top-10 so far and sits 27th in the driver standings. Suarez finished 33rd on Sunday, bagging four points on the way.<\/p>\n Next up for the Monterrey native is the Jack Link\u2019s 500<\/a> at Talladega Superspeedway. Scheduled for April 27, the 500-lap feature will be shown live on FOX from 3 pm ET onwards, with radio updates on MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.<\/p>\n 2025 will mark NASCAR\u2019s inaugural year of hosting a points-paying Cup Series race at Aut\u00f3dromo Hermanos Rodr\u00edguez in Mexico City. The 2.674-mile racetrack is just an 11-hour drive from Monterrey, Daniel Suarez\u2019s hometown.<\/p>\n The last time NASCAR visited Aut\u00f3dromo Hermanos Rodr\u00edguez was in 2005, but that was the Xfinity Series<\/a>. Suarez felt ecstatic when he heard that the NASCAR Cup Series was going to make a trip to his country on June 15, 2025.<\/p>\n \u201cHonestly, it’s like literally a dream for me,\u201d Daniel Suarez said in an interview (quoted by motorsport.com). \u201cAs I mentioned a little while ago, since I left my country in 2011 and obviously went to the U.S. in 2015, I had the opportunity to race full time in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n \u201cIn that year, I really dreamed and thought about one day racing in the top category of NASCAR in my (home) country. And to be here today is something incredible,\u201d he added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n As per NASCAR, the well-awaited event will be televised on Amazon Prime from 3 pm ET onwards with live radio updates on MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.<\/p>\nDaniel Suarez lets his emotions fly months ahead of NASCAR\u2019s upcoming Mexico leap<\/h2>\n
