Daniel Suarez is off to a good start in the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season. The Trackhouse Racing driver and his teammate, Ross Chastain, are having the time of their lives. Chastain-Suarez duo finished inside the top ten in the first three races of the season. The team started from where it left it in 2022, content top 10s. They are aiming for back-to-back playoffs and a potential championship.
The Mexican driver, who has been the flag bearer of Tarckhouse since its inception, has stepped up so far this season. Suarez took the chequered flag seventh at the Daytona 500. He improved in Fontana and finished fourth. He finished tenth at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Suarez is fourth in the championship at the moment. His stability has been impressive. Ross Chastain is the first in the championship standings.
During his media duties at the Phoenix Raceway, Daniel Suarez spoke about his team’s consistency. “I think it’s a combination of many things, starting with our people. We have great people, great engineers, and good pit crews. One year ago we were a very promising team. I feel like right now, Trackhouse is a reality. I think we have shown that we’re here to stay and to be competitive.”

“Last year was a very good year and this year, so far, has gone in a very good way. We have to continue to work, not feel comfortable and not stay still because everyone is working very hard. I feel like that has been one of the keys of Trackhouse to continue to evolve and continue to move forward.” Suarez had his first cup win at Sonoma last season. He ended the year with his career-best finish. He was 10th in the overall standings.
The Mexican feels that he has grown over the last season. He wants to be a better leader and take the team forward. Suarez admitted that he is his own harshest critic. Discipline is very important to him. The No. 99 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 driver stated that he is not perfect but is better than who he was a year ago. His data from Joe Gibbs Racing and Stewart-Haas Racing prove that he is indeed a better driver now.
This is the 31-year-old’s strongest start to a season. Suarez is thrilled by the events unfolding. He is relishing his Cup Series races. Trackhouse Racing, apart from their two impeccable drivers, has signed another part-time driver. Kimi Raikkonen, an ex-F1 champion, will make his appearance this season. Suarez will have to prove himself and have a solid finish at the end of the season. Meanwhile, he can be cheerful about his good run so far.
