Aric Almirola Intriguing Choice on Saturday at Pocono

Aric Almirola did not wreck, did not have bad pit stops, and was able to finish fourth last Sunday at Nashville. The most important thing was the awful luck that seemed to plague him throughout the first half vanished for at least a race. He starts 11th on Saturday but the Stewart Haas Racing driver […]

Denny Hamlin In Unique Position at Pocono

Denny Hamlin starting in tenth almost makes him the forgotten man on Saturday. However, that may not be the case.

Christopher Bell Final Surge at Nashville Bodes Well for Pocono

Christopher Bell weathered some early mistakes last week en route to a ninth-place finish at Nashville. His car was one of the five fastest in the final laps.

Kurt Busch Dangerous Wildcard Again at Pocono

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Could Lurk Around at Pocono

The back-to-back weekend races may actually favor Ricky Stenhouse Jr. this weekend. He starts seventh on Saturday behind a strong sixth-place result at Nashville last week. Combine that with a 12th at Charlotte a few weeks back and there is optimism for the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver. Was last week a fluke? Not necessarily. The No. […]

Ross Chastain Finding Right Mix at Right Time for Pocono

Ross Chastain nearly won at Nashville last week as his car was more than good enough to win if not for Kyle Larson's late surge. The previous history is almost irrelevant given Chastain starts sixth on Saturday (22nd or worse previously). For the Chip Ganassi Racing team driver, this comes down to how he handles […]

Kyle Busch Could Challenge for Win at Pocono

Kyle Busch had the car last week at Nashville to challenge Kyle Larson but the younger Busch was the victim of line and groove. He dropped just out of the top ten but expect the Joe Gibbs Racing driver to learn his lesson this week. Busch needs to work with fellow Joe Gibbs drivers a […]

Joey Logano May Be One to Watch at Pocono

Joey Logano dropped off a bit last week at Nashville but was able to save his car enough to still finish tenth. 2020 was a disaster for Logano at Pocono. Car issues kept him from truly contending and he finished off the lead lap in both races there. The Team Penske driver expects a better […]

Kevin Harvick Will Use Saturday Race As Practice for Sunday at Pocono

Kevin Harvick has done this before in these two-race weekend setups. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver nabbed a solid top-five finish at Nashville (started 12th). His car, by the end, looked quite good as it finally was getting the lift needed. Harvick ranks the best since 2018 at Pocono with five top-tens and a win in […]

William Byron Expects Another Top Ten at Pocono

William Byron has been so persistently consistent because he holds track position so well. Last week, Byron did not have the best race car. He started fourth and still managed a third-place result at Nashville. Byron has one of the best pit crews that were able to make a key air adjustment that helped the […]

Kyle Larson Favorite to Continue Dominance at Pocono

Kyle Larson is on one of those runs that would impress Jeff Gordon. He has won four straight races and was second in three before that. Discipline does not matter, package does not matter as the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver just adapts so well. The Saturday race features Larson on the pole which alone should […]

Tanner Boser Takes Co-Main-Event Spot On Late Notice
