Could Denny Hamlin Dominate at Nashville?

Denny Hamlin was the early week favorite to win this weekend's Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway, and nothing changed after practice on Saturday, as all sportsbooks still point to the No. 11 Toyota as the one to beat this weekend. And really, it makes a lot of sense. Hamlin has been head-and-shoulders above everyone […]

Ryan Blaney Is a DFS Tournament Option at Nashville

While most DFS players will be (rightfully) eyeing the Toyotas for Sunday evening's Cracker Barrel 400, those looking to be contrarian shouldn't forget about Ryan Blaney. The Team Penske driver is the defending race winner at Nashville Superspeedway, and the No. 12 Ford was one of the best cars at Bristol earlier this season as […]

Don't Overlook Ty Gibbs at Nashville

Ty Gibbs' track record at Nashville Superspeedway isn't the best (no finish better than 14th), but that doesn't mean you should avoid the Joe Gibbs Racing driver in this weekend's Cracker Barrel 400. The No. 54 Toyota has been one of the best on intermediate tracks this season, and Gibbs had a great practice session […]

Joey Logano Could Show Life at Nashville

The 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season has been a struggle for Joey Logano, as the Team Penske driver currently sits 18th in the points standings and has had six finishes outside of the top 30 so far through the first 13 races of the year. Could that turn around this weekend at Nashville, though? Thanks […]

Ross Chastain Needs a Good Run at Nashville

It has been a rough start to the season for Ross Chastain. With 13 races in the book and just 13 more to go before the Chase cutoff, Ross sits 23rd in poitns and has just two top-10 finishes thus far--both of which came at superspeedway races. Other than that, Chastain hasn't finished better than […]

On Saturday afternoon, the NASCAR Cup Series attempted to hold the qualifying session for this weekend's race at Nashville Superspeedway, the Cracker Barrel 400.

Denny Hamlin the Favorite to Win at Charlotte

Denny Hamlin is the favorite to win this year's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and that shouldn't be too surprising for any NASCAR fan. The No. 11 Toyota has been the strongest car on 1.5-mile tracks this season, and it hasn't really been that close. Hamlin has also been strong here at Charlotte, with […]

Tyler Reddick on Pole for Coca-Cola 600

Tyler Reddick will lead the field to the green on Sunday evening for the Coca-Cola 600, as the Cup Series points leader got the best starting position this weekend after qualifying was rained out and the field was set by the metric. Reddick is no stranger to running up front at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and […]

Christopher Bell Could Break Out of Slump

Keep an eye on Christopher Bell in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver is in a bit of a slump right now, with five straight finishes of 17th or worse, but there is hope for the No. 20 team this weekend. First, Bell is a previous Coke 600 […]

Chase Elliott Should Be Strong at Charlotte

Chase Elliott has been strong on the high-speed 1.5-mile tracks in 2026, so there's no reason to think he won't contend at Charlotte Motor Speedway in the Coca-Cola 600. Now, Chase will start from back in 16th-place when the race goes green, but passing cars has been no problem for the Hendrick Motorsports driver this […]

Carson Hocevar Confident for Coca-Cola 600

Don't count out Carson Hocevar in the Coca-Cola 600 this weekend. Remember, Hocevar blew an engine in last year's race while contending for the lead, and the No. 77 Chevrolet might be a little bit better this time around. After practice on Saturday, Hocevar stated, "I felt like we were pretty fast. I feel like […]

Corey Heim a Chalk DFS Pick at Charlotte

Corey Heim will rightfully be a popular DFS pick for the Coca-Cola 600 this weekend. Thanks to qualifying being rained out and the starting lineup being set by the metric, Heim will start from dead last (39th) in this year's Coca-Cola 600. That means that Heim is the safest DFS pick on the slate, as […]

Shane van Gisbergen the Heavy Favorite at Watkins Glen

To the surprise of likely nobody, Shane van Gisbergen is the favorite to win this weekend's Go Bowling at The Glen. The Trackhouse Racing driver put down a monster lap in qualifying on Saturday, beating second-fastest, Michael McDowell, but over two tenths of a second. Additionally, van Gisbergen looked incredibly stout in practice, ranking best […]

Is Chase Elliott a No-Brainer DFS Pick at Watkins Glen?

Chase Elliott qualified back in 27th place for this weekend's Go Bowling at The Glen, which should make him an obvious DFS play for this weekend's race. Elliott is one of the best road course racers in the series, and even on an off-day at this track type, the No. 9 team is usually able […]

Chris Buescher Qualifies 14th at Watkins Glen

Chris Buescher is one of the best racers at Watkins Glen, but qualifying hasn't been his specialty. It wasn't this weekend, either. The No. 17 Ford ended up 14th-fastest during the session on Saturday, and now Buescher will start from row seven when the Go Bowling at The Glen goes green on Sunday. Fans shouldn't […]

Ryan Blaney Has Upside at Watkins Glen After Signing Contract Extension

After signing a contract extension with Team Penske, it's time to keep an eye on Ryan Blaney this weekend. The Team Penske driver is one of the best at long-run speed and managing his tires, and with the falloff expected by Goodyear for this weekend's race, that could play right into Blaney's hands. Additionally, the […]

Michael McDowell Still Searching for First Top-Five Finish at Watkins Glen

Michael McDowell is a very established road course racer. He has a dominating win at the Indy Road Course to his credit, and over the last 11 races on this track type, McDowell has walked away with a top-five finish in six of them. He has yet to do that at Watkins Glen, though. Over […]

Is Carson Hocevar Too Aggressive for Road-Course Racing?

Carson Hocevar has been on quite a hot streak in Cup Series action as of late, getting a win at Talladega a couple of weeks ago while also posting four top-10 finishes over the last six races overall. This weekend will be good test for the No. 77 team and their momentum, though, as the […]

Joey Logano Needs a Good Run at Watkins Glen

With 11 races complete in the 2026 season, Joey Logano is now on the outside looking in on the Chase, as he sits 17th in the points standings as the midway point of the regular season looms. Logano sports an average finish of 21.0 this season and is currently on a three-race streak of finishes […]
