On Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, five NASCAR Truck Series drivers failed to qualify for the race, including Dawson Sutton. Normally piloting the No. 26 Chevrolet, Sutton was forced to drive the No. 27 Chevrolet to ensure teammate Toni Breidinger could compete. Breidinger, a part-time driver, made it to the 34th-fastest spot of 41 entries, but the team decided to focus on their full-time driver, resulting in Breidinger losing her seat for the remainder of the weekend.
Sutton, now in the No. 26 Chevrolet, enters the race at 18th in the championship standings, with little chance of making the Chase this year.
