Mexico City – Alex Bowman hurled when he dropped his body in a seat in the driver’s meeting on Sunday, The pain in his right lower back and bone a result of its The previous week in Michigan with a high velocity.
He said on Saturday it is painful to sit in his car. Just sitting in an ordinary stuffed folding chair on Sunday was just as difficult.
But here he was about to run 100 laps around the 15-turn, 2.42 mile Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez track of the 29th starting point. His journey lasted 3 hours and 14 minutes.
When it ended, he finished fourth.
“Running well has probably facilitated it as it could have been,” Bowman told Prime after the race. ‘Just proud of the whole team. I was behind this week. In full transparency, I couldn’t walk Wednesday, so I missed all my SIM things, all my meetings. Just try to get started again.
“I had a lot of help from many people to fix everything that was going on, and fortunately enough I could run all the rounds this weekend.”
The Trackhouse Racing driver qualifies for the 2025 play -off matches with his second career victory.
The crew chief Blake Harris marveled at what Bowman had achieved.
“To be honest, we didn’t know … Wednesday night for sure he would be on the plane with us on Thursday,” Harris said. “I thought his recovery was going well and Wednesday I and another man had to carry him basically, because he came to a point where he almost couldn’t walk.
“It’s hard for me because I look at Michigan, no matter what happens to our team, I feel responsible for it. In my opinion … if the car is more comfortable in Michigan, we are not in the 20s (in the course of the order) and we are not crashed. ‘
Nascar commissioner Steve Phelps told drivers before the race: “Together we do something that will be remembered in the history of our great sport.”
Bowman said he spent most of his time in Mexico in his hotel bed to recover. His team had Anthony Alfredo on Standby to alleviate Bowman. Alfredo was not needed.
Bowman fought through the injury for just his third top 10 final in the last ten races.
An important moment in the race came when Harris Bowman took off at Lap 62 from sixth place. Bowman was the second car to come to Pit Road at the beginning of the green-flag cycle. Christopher Bell, who completed second place, started a shot earlier.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. ‘s comments were caught in the car after the race by Carson Hocevar’s camera.
Harris said that the strategy began with Bowman’s pit stop on round 17. The pit staff took out the wet weather bands and put on a glowing point (intended for dry conditions).
Harris admits they probably fitted the cunning too early, but the stop came at their last chance to hit round 20 before the end of the stage, as no pit stops were allowed in the last two rounds of the first or second phase. There was an advantage for the move.
“It gave us the first jump to follow position,” Harris said. “At that point, we knew that a lot of guys thought a lot of rain was coming, so we knew that many guys would take out and that we stayed out. They sat in front of (the end of) stage two and thought they could go to the rain. We thought the rain would look like we were out of fuel.
“We started getting some of the sprinklers right while we started fueling.”
The Trackhouse Racing Manager achieved a dominant performance for his second Career Cup victory.
That’s why Bowman placed on Lap 62.
When a warning came out for the stopping of Carson Hcevar at LAP 66, only part of the field placed. Those who had it moved to the front of the field. Those who – also the leader Ty Gibbs – did not start deeper in the field after their pit stop.
Bowman started third place again and achieved a top five final.
“It feels good to get this number 48 Ally Chevrolet team a run they earn,” Bowman said. “We had very fast race cars and only had days that were not on the way yet. We had problems, and there were times when I crashed the car, so getting a good run this week and how hard they had to work is great. ‘
