We waited 70 days between the last race at Phoenix and today’s race at the Darlington Raceway, but for one driver, he will have to wait a little bit longer before he can turn a high speed lap.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr was collected in a first lap accident in his No. 47 Chevrolet while exiting Turn 2, as he would finish last (40th) as a result.

“Not really sure what to say there about our first lap, first corner, a disappointment Stenhouse said. “Pretty embarrassing for myself, our team. My crew guys, I feel awful for them. They put a lot of hard work into getting our cars ready and coming all the way down here to Darlington. I put myself in a bad spot there. The 32 (Corey LaJoie) looked like he had to check up and I put myself on the inside of him. Just put ourselves in a bad spot and ended our race before it ever started. I’m looking forward to getting back here on Wednesday to try and put a better run together, and put this behind us.”

Stenhouse, the Daytona 500 pole winner, has finished 20th or worse in four of the first five races of the season.
