Can Austin Cindric Bounce Back At Atlanta?

Austin Cindric begins Sunday from the 16th position at Atlanta. Now, the Daytona 500 winner was excellent late in runs there and on restarts. That could be of great benefit for this race. The big red flag is that Cindric has progressively had worse results since his breakthrough moment. The Team Penske driver was able […]

Denny Hamlin Has Chance To Help Himself At Atlanta

The first month of the 2022 season has come and gone. Denny Hamlin is outside of the top-20 overall. On the bright side, he starts 15th on Sunday and showed intermediate consistency when it came to speed. His times did not drop off until his runs reached into the 20 to 25 lap range. Hamlin […]

Chris Buescher's Mixed Results Cloud Atlanta Picture

Chris Buescher may be one of the more quirky drivers to figure out when it comes to Atlanta. He begins 14th on Sunday and the RFK Racing driver's Ford was slow late. His overall of 31.48 seconds just does not bode very well. His best lap was 0.45 seconds slower than the top drivers. Worse, […]

Daniel Suarez Slows Late In Practice At Atlanta

Daniel Suarez had few quick laps but as the runs went on, the times slowed for the TrackHouse Racing driver. Overall, Suarez exceeded 31 seconds as his lap times dropped late. Can he get some of that speed back on Sunday? He does start 13th but maintaining that position could be a challenge. The No. […]

William Byron Could Be Afterthought At Atlanta

Practice revealed some things about William Byron and the Hendrick Motorsports Racing team. Byron was not very fast but will start 12th on Sunday at Atlanta. That is because of Friday's inclement weather which tossed actual qualifying out the window. The No. 24 Chevy turned in the 27th fastest lap in practice but those lap […]

Alex Bowman Not Expected To Contend At Atlanta

Even before the Atlanta repave and changes, Alex Bowman had not led a lap in three years at the track. He did have two top-ten finishes but never quite contended. The No. 48 Chevy was way off in the practice session. His best lap was more than a half second off from the top drivers […]

Aric Almirola Could Have Tough Time At Atlanta

Aric Almirola has three top-10 results this season. As a result, the Stewart-Haas Racing driver begins Sunday from the 10th position at Atlanta. Almirola was right in contention at Daytona, but for him, Atlanta seems like a different animal. His initial speed was just not there. Ticking off greater than 31-second laps was troubling for […]

Kurt Busch May Be Under The Radar At Atlanta

The 23XI Racing driver loves "qualifying" this week as Kurt Busch starts ninth on Sunday at Atlanta. He is one of those unicorns in the sense that the elder Busch has won at Atlanta on the old course but has a Toyota which now carries some better speed. He was 13th best when it came […]

Kevin Harvick A Bit Troublesome At Atlanta

Kevin Harvick does start eighth at Atlanta on Sunday, but when it came to the practice session, things did not go well. Harvick and his Stewart-Haas Ford were 30th. Even worse, his lap averages were 31st as his No. 4 tailed into the 31.2- to 31.3-second range as his run approached 25 laps. The old […]

Ross Chastain And His Speed Could Be An Asset At Atlanta

Ross Chastain was one of the few NASCAR drivers who did extensive testing on the Atlanta track in January. The knowledge gained from those runs expect to be a major help on Sunday. During Saturday's practice session, the Trackhouse Racing driver was about a half-second slower than those January test sessions but still 16th when […]

Chase Elliott A Wild Card Of Sorts At Atlanta

Chase Elliott will start Atlanta from the sixth position on Sunday. The 2022 season has not quite gone as planned for the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver. The old configuration of Atlanta was not kind to the No. 9 car. However, hope springs eternal. He was in the top-ten at Daytona early this year with top-five […]

Tyler Reddick Looks To Sustain Momentum At Atlanta

Tyler Reddick and his Chevy start fifth on Sunday from the Atlanta Motor Speedway. He had the 12th-best practice lap on Saturday and did show some speed in intermediate intervals. Reddick was seventh overall in the only practice session. He did start to tail off a bit into the 30.4-second range after 20 to 25 […]

Kyle Busch Begins Atlanta From Outside Of Second Row

Kyle Busch was one of the best cars in practice on Saturday. He turned in the second fastest lap of the session at 186.391 MPH. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver sped around the track in less than 30 seconds (29.991) for a five-lap interval. He was the only racer to do so. The No. 18 […]

Joey Logano A Driver To Watch At Atlanta

Joey Logano will start Atlanta from the inside of the second row. Logano practiced well and turned in the fifth best lap on Saturday after Friday's practices were rained out. The Team Penske driver, like Ryan Blaney, will be on many watch lists for Sunday's race. The No. 22 car drove quite fast even out […]

Ryan Blaney Has History On His Side At Atlanta

Ryan Blaney has performed very well, including winning last year in Atlanta. That includes three top-five results. With the repave and other changes, the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 is a different track. However, on longer runs, the Team Penske driver looked every bit like the dominant driver from last year on the 1.54-mile circuit. […]

Chase Briscoe Awarded Pole At Atlanta

Chase Briscoe was granted the pole for Sunday afternoon's race at Atlanta. When all practice and events on Friday were cancelled due to inclement weather, NASCAR went back to the "merit based qualifying". As a result, Briscoe arguably benefitted the most. He was 26th in practice and has tended to not finish well on super-speedway […]

Keegan Bradley Riding Momentum Into Valspar

Keegan Bradley followed up an 11th-place finish at The Arnold Palmer Invitational with an impressive top-five result at a five-day long Players Championship. After consecutive 68s, Bradley nearly pulled off an improbable comeback. Just for him to finish minus-nine showed how he gained more than a stroke above average at TPC Sawgrass. His putting was […]

Cameron Tringale Looking For Hope At Valspar

At this point, Cameron Tringale is hoping for anything to hold on to. Tringale has been missing shots, putts, and more. Since the tied for third at the Farmers Insurance Open, Tringale has missed cuts in three of the last four tournaments. Valspar may be a little easier to make shots and birdies but consider […]

Mackenzie Hughes May Struggle Again At Valspar

Mackenzie Hughes put himself in solid position to make the final two rounds at The Players Championship. Then disaster struck. Hughes started the back nine first for Round 2 and shot +4 over through the first nine holes. That included a double bogey on 17 and bogey on 18. That caused the Canadian to miss […]

Kevin Streelman A Wild Card Heading To Valspar

Kevin Streelman had one good round at The Players Championship. He rode that "moving day" round to a tied for 22nd result. Other than that, the American golfer basically just shot around even par. There was little outstanding or great. Again, the problem was too many errant shots. Streelman started with a double bogey and […]

Francesco Molinari Expects To See Weekend At Valspar

Francesco Molinari managed to make the cut at The Players Championship. He never honestly was in contention, however. The Italian golfer shot just well enough but his 74 on Monday kept him staying in the top-30. Since finishing in a tie for sixth at The American Express, Molinari has struggled stringing holes err birdies together. […]

Collin Morikawa Should Bounce Back At Valspar

It was not Round 1 that kept Collin Morikawa from making the cut at TPC-Sawgrass, it was Round 2. The problem was Morikawa started poorly on Friday much like Thursday but bogeyed holes 1 and 3. He also could never get in position to birdie holes. When the American golfer did, his putter went uncharacteristically […]

Kurt Busch Comes Out Of Nowhere To Finish Fifth On Sunday

If Kurt Busch had maybe 10 or 20 more laps, the 23XI Racing driver could have wound up even better than fifth place on Sunday. The elder Busch made his way from 16th up to 11th then up to 5th. It was that final run which polarized quite a few fans and pundits alike. The […]

Ryan Blaney Drops To Fourth At Phoenix

Ryan Blaney enjoyed quite a run with the Team Penske car on Sunday. He started from the pole, led 144 laps, and even won Stage 2 of the Phoenix race. In the end, Blaney never could get his Ford up past the three young drivers in front of him. As a result, the Team Penske […]

Tyler Reddick Makes Late Push At Phoenix

Tyler Reddick has one very fast race car. There is little doubting that. It is controlling that race car which becomes a question mark. On Sunday at Phoenix, the No. 8 Chevy tried with Ross Chastain to go three-wide with Chase Briscoe. In the end, Briscoe had just a little bit more in the tank. […]

Ross Chastain Comes Up Just Short At Phoenix

Ross Chastain finished in the top three at Las Vegas last week while leading 83 laps. This week, Chastain did one place better holding of Tyler Reddick to finish second at Phoenix Raceway. The No. 1 Chevy was outside the top ten after Stage 1, vaulted to seventh after Stage 2, and then nearly won […]

Chase Briscoe Wins His First Race In Phoenix

Chase Briscoe picked a heck of a time to get his first career NASCAR Cup Series win. After all there were two other drivers behind him looking for their first as well. In the end, Briscoe held off Ross Chastain and Tyler Reddick to win the Ruoff Mortgage 500 on Sunday. Briscoe wound up winning […]
