NASCAR CUP SERIES

Somewhere under the thick red haze floating over Bristol Motor Speedway, Joey Logano took the checkered flag for NASCAR’s first Cup Series race at a dirt track in 50 years. The Logano victory closed a weekend of uncertainty and even some hysteria as NASCAR launched this drive through the dirt. “It’s only my fourth dirt race ever, so I had a lot of fun trying to figure it out,” Logano said. It was impossible to handicap this first dirt race because the teams had no idea how to prepare and the drivers had wildly varying experience. “In dirt racing you don’t have a windshield in front of you, so you can pull a tearoff.

One week after the Super Bowl, comes the Super Bowl of NASCAR – the Daytona 500. Who wins the Daytona 500? The one thing that has escaped him is the Daytona 500. Which long shot could pull off a Daytona 500 upset? Kaminski: Busch is going to win every race except the Daytona 500, the spring Darlington race and the championship race in Phoenix.

Martin Truex Jr. has signed a multi-year agreement to stay at Joe Gibbs Racing, where the 2017 NASCAR champion has won eight races in his two years with the team. Truex, Hamlin, Kyle Busch, and Christopher Bell are all signed at Gibbs at least through 2022. Truex — whose late-career metamorphosis from journeyman to champion was unprecedented in NASCAR history — signed with Gibbs after Furniture Row Racing folded after the 2018 season. Truex won the 2017 Cup title with FRR and was series runner-up in 2018 and 2019. It’s a tough race to win,” Truex said.

Out of contention to defend his NASCAR Cup title, Kyle Busch at least extended his season winning streak to 16 with his first victory of 2020. “But I got a win.”Busch won the NASCAR playoff race at Texas that finished Wednesday, three days after it started. “Coming here we had a lot of confidence and we had a strong run,” Truex said. The 57th career victory for Kyle Busch gives him at least one win in every year since 2005. The two-time Cup champion got his fourth Cup win at Texas and his first Cup win since his championship-crowning win at Homestead last November.

Joey Logano spent the final 40-plus laps at Kansas Speedway keeping an eye on Kevin Harvick in his rear-view mirror. Now, he can look ahead to the NASCAR Cup Series finale at Phoenix. Using every bit of the track Sunday to hold off the winningest driver this season, Logano took the checkered flag on a cold, blustery Sunday to secure a spot in the championship round of the playoffs. Hamlin managed to hold off the 2014 series champion to win his 10th stage of the season. Then, midway through the final stage, he began to notice a problem in his car.

People always ask what your least favorite track is and I say Dover just because Im not that good, Hamlin said. Again, Hamlin has at least positioned himself to make the championship race in Phoenix. He was dominant in Dover with wins in the first two stages and he led a race-high 115 laps. Truex, who has three career Dover wins, blamed Aric Almirola for ruining his day. Johnson has a record 11 wins at Dover and was feted by the track this weekend as its greatest winner.

Kyle Busch is slowly coughing away his championship chances and Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano are fighting again. Martin Truex Jr. led 464 of the 500 laps to collect his series-best seventh win of the season. The move inside Joe Gibbs Racing has been tremendously successful, even if Truex and the No. I wouldnt have went (to JGR) if I didnt think I could win a championship, Truex said. Admittedly unsatisfied with Hamlins response, Logano smacked Hamlin on the shoulder and turned to walk away.
