Trivia
- Daniel's name is a pun from his US voice actor, Daniel Suarez, who is a professional NASCAR driver that won the championship of Xfinity Series (after the restart). Suarez's story is quite similar to his fictional counterpart, as both have replaced previous racers (Suarez took over the #19 car when Carl Edwards unexpectedly retired during the post-season of the 2016 season).
- He is the only next-gen racer that is voiced by a NASCAR driver that had not been interviewed by news reporters in Cars 3.
- A natural instinct of Disney is to promote Daniel more than any other next-gen, even the other speaking ones. They make him come 2nd behind Storm, release more forms of toys of him besides just the Mattel Diecast, and release the Mattel diecast in numerous Multi-Packs.
