Lowe's (Charlotte): Juan Pablo Montoya NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Quotes - P35
JUAN PABLO MONTOYA, NO. 42 LYSOL IMPALA SS, FINISHED 35TH:
TAKE US THROUGH THE RESTART FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE, WHAT HAPPENED? "Well they all kind of went and then they checked up and I checked up and I don't know somebody didn't slow down and just ripped of the whole rear of the car. Then I got hit into the car in front of us. I don't know, just one of those deals. It was weird, actually a lot of things on the race track you could see and the cautions never came out. I think they got criticized last week and I think they went too far this week. It is what it is. Whether you like it or not they are in charge.

"They all accelerated and they all checked up. Every time the No. 24 (Jeff Gordon) restarted it was the same thing. It is what it is and you've just got to move on. Everybody in this Lysol car today was pretty impressive. We had one of our fastest cars. Not much we can do. We worked as hard as we could and we did all what we thought was possible and today the best we could do was 35th.
YOU'VE HAD A GREAT CHASE SO FAR. WHAT ARE YOUR FEELINGS RIGHT NOW?
"Oh, it's okay. It's racing. If you're expecting to have ten clean races then you're dreaming. We knew it could happen and here, always the restarts are an issue and I managed to slow down and I just got hit from behind. It happens."
IS THIS THE WORST POSSIBLE CASE SCENARIO?
"For what? We made the Chase and up until today we had four top five's in a row and what's bad about it, you know what I mean. We were actually surprised; everybody on the team is doing such a good job that even today we had a faster car than the No. 48 (Jimmie Johnson). So, it happens. It's one of those racing things that will happen and we've just got to move on."
