Jason Hathaway, driver of the No. 3 Weiser/ASSA Abloy/Leland Chevrolet, delivered an impressive performance during the second round of the NASCAR Canada Series at Autodrome Chaudière this past Saturday. Overcoming early setbacks, Hathaway fought his way through the pack to secure a seventh-place finish.
The race marked the first oval track event of the year, and Hathaway began the weekend with a solid practice session, clocking the 13th-quickest time. During qualifying, Hathaway felt something was amiss with the No. 3 car. The E.H.R. team decided to look closer, which meant pulling out of their qualifying position and starting at the back of the field. This turned out to be the right move as a mechanical issue was discovered and corrected before the race.
Hathaway displayed his characteristic determination and skill, engaging in intense side-by-side battles with regulars at Autodrome Chaudière to claim a seventh-place finish. Hathaway’s remarkable comeback earned him the Newfoundland Tourism Move of the Race, a testament to his ability to navigate the challenges and make significant advances on the track.
“I enjoyed getting back in the seat for the first oval race of the year,” said Hathaway. “Chaudière is a pretty racy track with a great fan base; the place was packed! It was a solid start to the next few races on ovals for us.”
