While Daniel Suarez might not have a race win under his belt so far this season, the Trackhouse Racing driver is surely winning off of the track. The 30-year-old driver recently helped a turtle, who was somehow stranded in the middle of the road, get away from the traffic and onto the sidewalk.

And even though what he did sounds easy, it probably wasn’t. Because the turtle in the subject is a snapping turtle, one that is notorious for tussling with animals as big as an alligator.

This was something that the NASCAR driver probably had in mind, considering the meticulous method he chose to pick up the poor animal, while also being considerate of his own safety.

Trackhouse Racing have the essential ingredients of success, says Daniel Suarez

In a recent interview, Daniel Suarez admitted that the Cup Series is “tough.” He described how it’s a matter of chance to hit the sweet spot once in a while, one needs to have “the whole package” to have a great team that includes engineers, good drivers, pit crew, and the rest.

“If only one part of that is missing, it’s going to be tough,” he added. “It’s true teamwork. We have to be there to support each other and to try to make us better. I’m very happy with where we are with that.”
