This is it... | "The Finale" | Aric Almirola 

Dammit Aric! I wish your retirement got as much attention as Kevin's got! I'm really going to miss seeing you on track next year! Good luck in your future! Hug your wife and kids! They deserve it

SHR: thank you for providing Aric the platform to drive. #10 Pit Crew: thank you for your dedication to see #10 succeed. Smithfield: thank you for providing Aric the sponsorship to make his dreams come true. Janice/Alex/Abby: thank you for sharing Aric with all of us. Aric: thank you for being an outstanding Christian and role model. God: thank you for creating Aric and using him to show us all how to be a devout Christian! We’re gonna miss you buddy!!!

I, I am gonna miss watching you on TV, this I have to say is one of the most sad moments of my life, seeing one of my FAVORITE NASCAR drivers retiring, ‘10 4EVER’ and thank you for inspiring me to be a NASCAR driver, 😢😭 Cya Aric, I don’t have the strength to say goodbye, so I’m saying Cya! 😭💯

Thanks for the memories, Aric. I'm gonna miss watching that number 10 Smithfield Ford rip around the track.

Glad there’s a recording of all of that radio chatter between you and Drew and Joel and Alex. I heard of all it on the scanner and wished I had been recording. I’m really, really gonna miss you, Aric. I’ve been so proud to wear your colors every Sunday, and I’ve loved cheering you on, both from my couch and from the grandstands. You’re always such a class act both behind the wheel and in front of a camera, and you’re a great role model. Thanks for all the memories, enjoy spending more time with the family, and if you have the time, strap back into something with four wheels and a V8 engine once in a while (preferably something with a blue oval on it, but I’ll take what I can get) and I’ll be watching to cheer you on! #Almirolling 🥓🔟💙

Congratulations Aric good luck in the next stage of your life.

Thank You Aric!

You are gonna be missed. You have been a stellar racer and person to the fans! Just an all around great guy! Thank you for being you!

Been awesome having you as a teammate, good luck! I know all of your fans are feeling like us Harvick fans

Thanks Aric for everything, I've been a fan of you since 2018, I'll miss you Bacon Man...

Thank you for never giving up in the last 3 seasons. Hard to believe the 6-year journey is over. I'll always root for the underdogs who smile in the face of adversity and pleasantly surprise the critics with a collection of top-10s and a few wins in between. I'm an honest fan. I understood we probably weren't going to be as good as the 4, but it sure was fun hanging up there with 'em, watching this team grow into a legitimate contender. It was the little engine that could, and at times, did! Hopefully, the 2021 New Hampshire car is still around the shop!

going to miss you on the 10 car :( the journey has been a ride LETS GO ARIC

We're gonna miss seing you fulll time, Aric, great career! Hope to see you part time next year!

Gonna miss ya aric your cars were always fast and looked good I know god has a lot of good plans god bless you

Looking forward to what you will do for the Lord! He has given you many blessings & a few wins. The best blessing is that your family has been on this journey with you & will continue to be.

Great tribute to a classy young man. You have accomplished much and makes us proud. Much love to you and your family. Can’t believe how much Alex looks like you when you played at North Tampa. Love Louie and Mary Martinez.

Thank you Aric ❤ Now what type of videos are next for us to watch? Hugs ❤️

Aric you did the family proud I remember racing your grandpa at east bay as part of a crew he was tuff and so have you been so keep smiling and new opportunities will come to you

Thank you for a great career, documenting it recently for us to see, and giving my sons & nephews a role model to look up to and cheer for each & every week. God bless you and your family in this next chapter and we'll be rooting for your fellow Ford Performance friend, Blaney, moving forward!

I'm going to miss you Aric. At least you were able to get one last win with RSS Racing.

I am also going to miss seeing you race the #10, but there’s a-lot of good memories. Good luck in all your future adventures

Aric thanks for the memories you had us create. I’m gonna miss seeing bacon in victory lane for a while but it is what it is. I hope you come back and run a couple off-races in Xfinity and truck and maybe some cup but probably not. You will be missed by nascar, myself, Smithfield, and SHR. Have a great retirement and hope to see you run in Xfinity and truck. Thanks for the memories you shared with us. Your pal: brayden

You had an amazing career! Next year won’t be the same without you in the 10!

Were going to miss you Aric happy retirement

Congrats on your win last night Aric! Any chance that will get this channel back up and going?
