The best way I could describe the overall state of NASCAR right now is the ‘This is Fine’ meme. You know the one where the cartoon dog is in a burning building oblivious to what is around him.
This year’s Southern 500 is once again the start of the annual NASCAR Cup Series playoff for the second year in a row. With Kurt Busch still on the mend from his Pocono crash, this is also the first postseason that doesn’t feature a driver from the first Chase for the Cup in 2004
NASCAR earlier this week wrapped up a two-day testing session with the Next Gen Cup Series Car. Well over a dozen drivers took to the Charlotte Roval over the course of these sessions on Monday and Tuesday.
The hits keep coming for Kyle Larson, as he picked up his third straight Cup Series victory last Sunday at Nashville. Larson didn’t waste much time inhaling the first four drivers after qualifying as deep as fifth. After 300 laps, he led 264 of them.
The NASCAR Cup Series is back for another race. This week, they head to Richmond for the Toyota Owners 400. Hopefully, the rain stays away for this race because the past two cup races have been postponed until the following day because of rain.
This week, NASCAR heads west to Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Pennzoil 400. It is a perfect combination to have a gambling article about a NASCAR race in Las Vegas right? Exactly, now let’s jump right into my top bets for this weekend’s race.
The Silly Season had a handful of important driver shuffles, the most notable being the signing of Kyle Larson to Hendricks Motorsports. We’d also get the announcement of a brand-new team partnership between former NBA Player Michael Jordan and NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin.
Last week’s race at New Hampshire was dominated by Brad Keselowski and he ultimately ended up winning the race. This week the NASCAR Cup Series heads up north to Michigan International Speedway. This weekend will feature a Cup Series doubleheader. There will be two races with both races being 312 miles long. First, we will kick things off with Saturday’s cup race. The starting lineup was determined by a random draw. Let’s jump right into my top drivers for Saturday’s FireKeepers Casino 400.
It was a very convincing showing for Martin Truex Jr, taking over the lead from Denny Hamlin during the first wave of pit stops and not relinquishing it from there on out. In dominating fashion, Truex would lead 464 of the race’s 500 laps, if there was one driver that had at least a little something for the nineteen it would be William Byron.
It took two overtime restarts to get finished, but Denny Hamlin would manage to come through with a toughly fought win edging out Chase Elliot. Hamlin would get a nice assist from teammate Kyle Busch to get him the lead he needed in the final green white. Busch, Kurt Busch, William Byron, Martin Truex Jr, Eric Jones, Clint Bowyer, Harvick, and Jimmie Johnson rounded out the top 10. Elliot manages to qualify for the round of eight after just managing to beat out Brad Keselowski by three points.
