Nascar 2019/2020

Yeah, not looking good for tonight. Larson has been best all weekend but if they get to go tonight I don't think it suits him with all the grip washed off the track. Very hard to run up high like he does under those conditions.
Kyle Busch has an awful record in the spring race at Dover. Harvick has been going well this weekend but his car has not been consistent through races at any stage this season. Truex and Erik Jones have looked good. Last week's winner Chase Elliott has the pole.

Tonight at 12.30am we get the Digital Ally 400 from Kansas.
Kevin Harvick has been the man all week ably assisted by his teammates Clint Bowyer and Aric Almirola. Just Busch and Kyle Larson have had a decent week also and Chase Elliott has been up there as well.
Not many of the Toyotas have shown much and some of them haven't even completed a consecutive 10 laps in practice but you can never rule out Kyle Busch and past weeks runaway winner Martin Truex jnr.
Gotta fancy that Truex will get in the mix again with how good his car was last weekend. Harvick though has had the best 10 lap averages in both practices and he also qualified on pole.

A great race tonight, think there was 26 lead changes. Truex got it done.

Yeah, dominated yesterday. Truex car was poor yesterday, felt he was the only guy who could challenge Kyle.
They need to work on getting Erik Jones a win now to have their whole team in the playoffs. Serious chance that it's a Toyota driver winning the cup series title this year.

Hendricks Motorsport were back on top this weekend in Chicagoland. Alex Bowman driving what used to be Dale Jnrs no.88 got his first ever win, Jimmie Johnson led at one stage and came home fourth, William Byron also lead at one stage before a bad restart killed his chances and he finished 8th. Chase Elliott had a trouble filled day and at one stage was two laps down but battled back for an 11th place finish to round out a great weekend for the Chevy team. Another Chevy driven by Kyle Larson chased down Bowman and took the lead for a couple of laps before Bowman got back by him for the win. Joey Logano had a consistent day and got third.
It's on to Daytona next Saturday night for the Coke Zero 400. Should be a very exciting race with lots of crashes likely in a crazy restrictor plate race.

Should be a great one. Most all time wins is 11 by Jimmie Johnson, winner of the spring race at the track Martin Truex Jr. who won the two races before last week, Chase Elliott who has the best average finish here, won this last year and won last week, you've got Kyle Larson who is great on this track, Kevin Harvick who has led the most laps at this track, you can never rule out Kyle Busch and then my pick is Denny Hamlin who has had a serious long run car all season and got the pole in a record time for this. William Byron is a dark horse, has been qualifying up front a lot recently but they've tuned the car down a little looking for more consistency this week.
Should be a great race tonight.

It'll be sad to see Jimmy go, hopefully he has a good car next year and can go out on a high.
In other not so new news, Daniel Suarez is out of SHR and Cole Custer will take over the no. 41.
Christopher Bell is going to Leavine family racing who have a partnership with Joe Gibbs racing with whom Bell has a contract. Matt Di Benedetto has moved from the 95 to Wood brothers.
The last of the big three in the Xfinity series for the past two seasons is Tyler Reddick and he is also moving up into the no. 8 for RCR. He won the xfinity series the last two years.
It's going to be some battle for the rookie of the year title.
If you asked me a year ago I'd have said that Christopher Bell would be the superstar among those three but now I'm not so sure. We could be seeing a lot of young drivers coming through over the next couple of years with Bell turning 25, Reddick and Eric Jones both 23, and Custer and William Byron 21.
I think there will be a lot of cup championships between those five over the next decade.
