The NASCAR Cup Series ran the Coca-Cola 600 this past Sunday evening at Charlotte Motor Speedway, one of the Crown Jewel races of the season.

Charlotte NASCAR Green Flag Speed Rankings (Post-Race Analysis)

The NASCAR Cup Series ran the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday evening, with Christopher Bell being declared the winner after a controversial decision to end the race early due to rain. When it came to Green Flag Speed, Ryan Blaney actually ranked best in that category, but that deserves an asterisk because […]

Christopher Bell Gets Booed After Winning Rain-Shortened Coca-Cola 600

Christopher Bell was declared the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 race winner on Sunday evening at Charlotte Motor Speedway, but fans weren't too happy about it. NASCAR decided to call the race because of rain after just 249 of the scheduled 400 laps were ran. Fans were not pleased with that decision, and took it out on […]

Brad Keselowski Finishes Second At Charlotte

Brad Keselowski finished second in this year's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, which was impressive considering he qualified back in 30th for it. Additionally, the race was shortened because of rain, with only 249 of the 400 scheduled laps being ran. When speaking to the media after the race, Keselowski stated, "I felt like […]

Kyle Larson Will Miss Start of Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte; Do Not Pick Him in DFS

The Indianapolis 500 is currently under rain delay, but it looks likely that the race will get started around 4:30 pm ET. It has been announced that NASCAR Cup Series star, Kyle Larson, will be staying in Indianapolis to run the Indianapolis 500 and will likely miss the start of the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte […]

William Byron a Strong Contender for the Coca-Cola 600

William Byron should be a contender in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Hendrick Motorsports driver looked very fast in practice here on Saturday before spinning out, and he didn't get any damage when he wrecked so that's a good thing. Byron also went on to qualify second, so he has a […]

Martin Truex Jr Looking for First Win of the Season at Charlotte

We're 13 races into the 2024 season and Martin Truex Jr is still winless despite being one of the fastest cars all year long. Will that change this weekend at Charlotte? Nighttime is when Truex tends to be the fastest, and the ending of this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 race will be at night. Truex qualified […]

Denny Hamlin Should Contend for Coca-Cola 600 Win

Denny Hamlin should be a contender for the win at Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has been the fastest on the 1.5-mile intermediates this season, walking away with an eighth-place finish at Las Vegas and a fifth-place finish at Kansas. At Charlotte specifically, Hamlin won from the pole here back […]

Ryan Blaney a Strong DFS Play at Charlotte

Despite being the third-highest-priced driver on the DraftKings slate this weekend, Ryan Blaney ($10,300) is a strong option on the DFS platform. He qualified back in 16th for this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, which gives the defending series Champion good Place Differential upside. Blaney is also the defending winner of this race, […]

Kyle Busch a Value DFS Play at Charlotte

Kyle Busch will likely be a popular DFS pick for this evening's Coca-Cola 600, and for good reason. Rowdy has finished sixth or better in six of his last seven starts at Charlotte Motor Speedway and the No. 8 Chevrolet has been one of the fastest on the low-wear, 1.5-mile tracks this season. Additionally, over […]

Noah Gragson Should Be Better Than Record at Charlotte

Noah Gragson has two career NASCAR Cup Series starts at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and neither of them have been that great. He finished 24th in the 2022 race while driving for Kaulig Racing and then wound up 36th last year after an engine issue while racing for Legacy Motor Club. In other words, the bar […]

Chase Briscoe Likely Looking at a Mediocre Run at Charlotte

Don't expect a lot out of Chase Briscoe in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The No. 14 Ford was just 30th-fastest in practice on Saturday, although Briscoe was able to improve that speed during qualifying and will roll off the grid from 18th on Sunday evening. Chase did post a fourth-place finish […]

Don't Be Afraid to Roll the Dice with Ricky Stenhouse Jr at Charlotte

Ricky Stenhouse Jr has never been called consistent in his career, but that is a good way to describe his performance at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Kyle Larson Could Miss Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte

Kyle Larson is attempting to pull off 1,100 miles of racing today, as he is scheduled to race both the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca-Cola 600. However, rain may get in the way of that, as the forecast in Indianapolis isn't looking ideal. If the Indianapolis 500 would be delayed due to weather, it is […]

Josh Berry Isn't a Great DFS Option at Charlotte

Qualifying hasn't been Josh Berry's strong suit this season, so the fact that his No. 4 Ford will start from 13th in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte is definitely noteworthy. Berry hasn't been flashy many times this year, but he's coming off of a podium finish at Darlington and looking to continue that momentum […]

Justin Haley Looking to Keep Momentum Rolling at Charlotte

Keep an eye on Justin Haley in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Fresh off of his first top-10 finish of the season (a ninth-place run at Darlington), the Rick Ware Racing driver went out and qualified 22nd for this weekend's race--his second-best qualifying effort of the season thus far. As far as […]

Todd Gilliland Has DFS Place Differential Upside at Charlotte

Todd Gilliland qualified way back in 35th-place for this weekend's Coca-Cola 600, which should scream one thing into the minds of DFS players: Place Differential potential. Gilliland hasn't been amazing on the intermediate tracks this season, but he hasn't been awful either, posting results of 24th at Las Vegas, 31st at Texas, and 14th (most […]

Michael McDowell Could Surprise With Another Top 10 at Charlotte

With track position being so important with this Next Gen car, qualifying has become even more important in the NASCAR Cup Series. The good thing for Michael McDowell is that he is having a career year when it comes to qualifying, as his average starting position this season is 13.1--significantly better than his career average […]
