Kyle Larson Wins Pole For Daytona Without Driving

Kyle Larson wins the pole for the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on Saturday night without practice or qualifying. Thunderstorms washed out the ability to do much of anything on Friday. Based on a formula that placed emphasis on last week's race results, Hendrick Motorsports benefitted quite well. The 1st, 2nd, and 10th place cars are […]

Kyle Busch Qualifies 10th At Watkins Glen

Kyle Busch had the only Toyota to qualify for the last round of qualifying. He ended up tenth suffering from engine issues which seemed to be a theme. Toyota had just two cars in the top-20 (Ty Gibbs - 16th). The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has had a "hard as hell" year and the lack […]

Daniel Suarez Begins Ninth At Watkins Glen

Daniel Suarez got to the final round of qualifying and looked like his TrackHouse Racing car could wind up in the top five. That did not materialize as Suarez fell more than a second off the pace of Kyle Larson. Suarez's No. 99 car started slow and never truly recovered bleeding time on every turn. […]

Austin Cindric Fades A Bit Late In Qualifying Saturday

Austin Cindric faded a little later in his qualifying lap on Saturday as he lost even more time compared to Chris Buescher. The Team Penske driver and his No. 2 car dropped six to seven tenths of a second over the final four turns. It felt like he was a little late particularly in turns […]

Chris Buescher Starts Seventh At Watkins Glen

For now, we will still call him Chris Buescher (sorry Dale Jr.). That being said, the Ford driver begins seventh but did drop about a half second on the second half of his qualifying lap Saturday. That was a bit disappointing because it looked like he might end up on Row 1 at first. Buescher […]

AJ Allmendinger Can Be A Ringer At Watkins Glen

One of the real wild cards for the race at Watkins Glen may just be AJ Allmendinger. The No. 16 Chevy driver from Kaulig Racing starts sixth and again the racers from the top six positions often have the best chance to win over the past decade or so at The Glen. That said, Allmendinger […]

Tyler Reddick Right Where He Wants To Be

Tyler Reddick has won two road courses this year. He finished tenth in his only appearance at Watkins Glen last year. With a faster race car on courses with left and right turns, Reddick has been even more formidable. He won at Indianapolis while leading 38 laps. Reddick is capable of holding most anyone off […]

William Byron Steams Into Fourth In Qualifying

Putting aside what happened later on Saturday, William Byron's No. 24 looked great in qualifying for Watkins Glen. He will start fourth for the Go Bowling at The Glen and could be a major factor in a race in what feels like months. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver does have four top-12 results in his […]

Michael McDowell Blazing His Own Trail In Qualifying

Michael McDowell with the Next-Gen car on road courses has been surprisingly good. Lately, he has run well at quite a few tracks. McDowell and his Front Row Motorsports car surprised the field and pundits by qualifying third for the Go Bowling at The Glen. McDowell was a bit slow in the practice session some […]

Kyle Larson Nearly Takes Pole At Watkins Glen

Kyle Larson's car looked as fast as it has in months on Saturday as he qualified second for the Go Bowling at The Glen. His 70.516 second lap probably would have been good enough for the pole if not for Elliott. It was quite the day for Hendrick Motorsports as the top three cars would […]

Chase Elliott Snags The Pole At Watkins Glen

Chase Elliott found a way to nab another pole at Watkins Glen on Saturday. It was not all great but Elliott and his Hendrick Motorsports racing car edged Kyle Larson by 0.039 seconds to start from the top spot on Sunday. When one thinks about it, on road courses, it is those top five or […]

Kimi Raikkonen Handled NASCAR Car Well In Qualifying

Granted, the Finnish Formula 1 driver will start 27th on Sunday but his TrackHouse Racing car may afford him the ability to move up some positions at the very least. His No. 91 Chevy showed some flashes of speed in practice and though he was 20th there, enough adjustments could be made to get his […]

Ryan Blaney Starts 26th On Sunday At The Glen

This was probably not how Ryan Blaney drew it up for Sunday. He starts 26th at "The Glen". The No. 12 Ford just could not accelerate properly out of most of the turns. One could see Blaney just kept bleeding time. His practice laps were not that much better. Now, 1.25 MPH slower does not […]

Martin Truex Jr. Mired In 25th After Qualifying

It was mostly a nightmare once again for the Toyota cars as Martin Truex Jr. will start 25th on Sunday. The Joe Gibbs Racing car just could not generate enough lap speed to do well in qualifying. This felt like a familiar refrain with the Next-Gen car. Road courses and Toyota have mostly not been […]

Joey Logano Begins Way Back In 20th At Watkins Glen

Joey Logano led a ton of laps and just could not win last week. This week, he begins way back in 20th for Watkins Glen. The twist is the Team Penske driver may be better off. Logano has finished in the top-ten in eight of the past 16 road races he has entered. While the […]

Ross Chastain May Be Risky At Watkins Glen

Ross Chastain fell back a bit and wound up qualifying 18th for Sunday at Watkins Glen. That was a bit of a shock as Daniel Suarez easily made the top-ten (starting ninth). The TrackHouse Racing driver and his No. 1 car seemed just a little off in the later turns of the lap. That took […]

Ty Gibbs May Surprise A Little On Sunday

Ty Gibbs qualified 16th despite the issues with the Toyota cars. Road courses and Toyota this year do not seem to get along. Gibbs and the 23XI Racing car was one of only two drivers to make the top-20. It was that kind of Saturday. Even Kyle Busch had engine issues along with Christopher Bell. […]

Brad Keselowski Might Have Issues At Watkins Glen

Brad Keselowski did turn in a pretty solid lap on Saturday. That will get him in the top-15 to start the Go Bowling at The Glen. Now, how does his RFK Racing Ford do once the race starts is the question? He is not among the top third when it comes to average finish on […]

Chase Briscoe Could Be In Decent Position For Sunday

Chase Briscoe starts from the 14th position on Sunday for the Go Bowling at The Glen. Briscoe and his Stewart-Haas Ford car finished ninth last year and was in the top five after the second stage. What will happen with the No. 14 this time around? Briscoe will have to find some of the speed […]

Austin Dillon Starts 12th On Sunday At Watkins Glen

Austin Dillon and his Richard Childress Racing Chevy will start Sunday from the 12th position at Watkins Glen. Dillon and the No. 3 car have not had the best results on road courses like "The Glen" however. It will be interesting to see what kind of speed Dillon holds as the runs get longer on […]

Alex Bowman Outside Top Ten Qualifying Saturday

Alex Bowman qualified in 11th on Saturday for Go Bowling at The Glen. Bowman has previously enjoyed a bit of road success on courses with left and right turns. He does have seven top-tens in his last 16 races with an average finish of 13.0. Considering the other Hendrick Motorsports Racing drivers are 1st, 2nd, […]

Sahith Theegala Flashes Last Week At St. Jude

Sahith Theegala showed a glimpse of what his future could be like. When he opened up with a 63 at the St. Jude, that drew a considerable amount of notice. The only problem was Theegala could only manage to go two-under for the final three round. Still, he finished a mere six shots off the […]

Mito Pereira Starting To Improve

Just surviving to make the cut last week at the St. Jude helped Mito Pereira. The Chilean golfer managed to shoot under par over the weekend and wound up 42nd. It was not the greatest result but an effective one. This is because Pereira missed five straight cuts leading up to the tournament at TPC […]

Cam Davis Keeps Rolling With Another Top Finish

Cam Davis has now finished inside the top 20 three times in his last three tournaments. That included a T13 last week at the St. Jude. The 67-66 weekend bodes well for this week's upcoming BMW Championship. The young Australian golfer has enjoyed the PGA Tour so far this year. His 56.86% driving accuracy is […]

Si Woo Kim Inconsistent Heading To BMW Championship

Si Woo Kim had one of the strangest tournaments last week. The Korean golfer opened up with a tour de force 62 which put him in the lead and then he proceeded to just miss putts and some shots. That 73-72 middle knocked Kim right out of contention. Then on Sunday, when he was far […]

Adam Hadwin Tries To Recover From Last Week's Implosion

Adam Hadwin had a weekend he would like to forget at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. It was thought the 76 was bad on Saturday but the 77 on Sunday was an even bigger disaster. That dropped the Canadian golfer from the top 20 all the way to 69th. The BMW Championship course in Wilmington […]

Brian Harman Tries To Continue Momentum From St. Jude

Brian Harman just kept making putts and stayed in the FedEx St. Jude Championship last weekend. The American golfer shot in the 60's for all four rounds. That consistency helped him finish in a tie for third. That boosted his FedEx Cup ranking all the way up to 23rd. This week, Harman tries to improve […]

Chez Reavie Attempts To Stay In FedEx Playoff Hunt

Chez Reavie had a rough Sunday last week at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Reavie finished with a two-over 72 which tumbled him down to a tie for 51st. So, that was a 47th. 49th, and 51st the past three weeks for the American golfer. It is that -0.37 strokes gained putting that hurts Reavie […]

Patrick Cantlay Tries To Recover From Rough Weekend

Patrick Cantlay attempts to bounce back this week at the BMW Championship. Last week at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the American golfer faltered over the weekend after a 71 and 72. Cantlay just could not make putts and then compounded that with a bogey and double bogey on the back nine Sunday. It was […]
