Bad Luck Continues For Martin Truex Jr. At Atlanta
1 month agoThe bad-luck streak for Martin Truex Jr. continued on at Atlanta Motor Speedway this past weekend, as the Joe Gibbs Racing driver was collected in a wreck with Ryan Blaney and Chris Buescher on Lap 205 of the Quaker State 400. Truex ultimately finished 35th when it was all said and done, earning just four points on the day. He now sits below the cut line in the first round of the playoffs -- 19 points behind Ty Gibbs, who is in 12th. Truex now has six straight finishes of 24th or worse and has finished outside of the top 20 in 10 of the last 13 races overall. Now the series heads to Watkins Glen, where Truex has one victory and has finishes of seventh or better in six of the last seven races there. However, the question has to remain: Will this bad-luck bug finally jump off of the No. 19 team? We'll find out on Sunday.
