I love the playoffs. I love it, man. What a race! What a Team Penske battle there at the end. Had a good restart and was able to get in front of the 12. And he had a lot of long run speed there, and it was all I had there to hold him off. Man, three of them, that’s really special to get that. What a team. To fight through today, we went through a little bit of adversity throughout the race.
Joey Logano told NBC Sports.
He went on to hail his crew chief Paul Wolfe, whose strategical moves have delivered him race wins throughout the 2024 season and asserted that he got the best team. Logano showed humility by attributing his triumph to his team, then taking some to himself. He later also highlighted the mental toughness of his team.
Paul Wolfe, what a crew chief do I have? I’ve got the best team. I don’t know if I’m the best driver, but I’ve got the best team, and together we’re very well-rounded and can show up when it matters the most. We’ve got a mentally tough team that can make things happen when it matters.
Joey Logano added.
Joey Logano asserts no one in the garage works harder than them
While further talking on the point, Joey Logano pointed out that he put in a lot of work and effort to building the race car and admitted that no one in the garage works harder than them. He is glad that he was able to deliver the championship the crave for and is proud of his team.
The amount of work and effort that went into building this race car right here, the amount of time, I don’t think anyone works harder than us. We were up at 6:00 in the morning this morning going over stuff. The guys just want it bad. I’m glad we delivered. It was looking iffy there for a minute, but that restart was really the difference-maker, and gosh, I’m so proud of the team.
Joey Logano said.
The No:22 Ford team has been on a game in the last half of the playoffs and that was a prominent factor behind his championship triumph. Though there will be a set of NASCSAR fans who will try to undermine the title win by blaming the format, at the end of the day everyone played by the same rules and the better man won.
