Ty Gibbs lamented his loss at Bristol but expressed gratitude for a special weekend shared with the Busch family. The late Kyle Busch's legacy was honored with M&M's colors returning to the NASCAR grid for the first time in four years. Gibbs walked out to driver introductions with Brexton Busch, and he led 120 laps, making his presence felt as the most recent Cup winner at Bristol.
However, he fell short in the final moments, losing to Joey Logano. Gibbs praised the M&M's Camry as a blast to drive and emphasized the fun of the race, despite the loss.

Gibbs had a small role in the post-race altercation between Blaney and Hocevar, smiling as he intervened.
