He later appears in the beginning of the 2017 season at the [[Florida 500]] starting in 7th place and managing to stay at the front of the pack. After the crash caused by [[Cam Spinner]], Flip makes a pit stop and restarts in 3rd which is the position he would stay in for the rest of the race up until the final few laps. In the later part of the race, [[Cruz Ramirez]] passes him for 3rd though Dover would soon pass Ramirez again as she feels discouraged from a comment by [[Jackson Storm]]. Cruz would later pass him again and with other racers also passing him on the final 2 laps. Flip finishes the race in 9th place.
