Martin Truex Jr. Frustrated With Competitors After Watkins Glen
3 weeks agoMartin Truex Jr.'s final full-time season in the NASCAR Cup Series definitely isn't going as well as he hoped. Through 28 races this year, Truex has an average finish of 17.8, which is his worst average result since the 2014 season, where he finished 24th in points. With his 20th-place finish at Watkins Glen this past weekend, Truex now sits 14 points below the cut line heading into the final race of the first round at Bristol on Saturday night. That 20th-place result also marks the seventh straight finish of 20th or worse for Truex, a streak that dates back to the Indianapolis race in late July. After Sunday's Go Bowling at The Glen, Truex aired his frustrations to reporters, saying, "This racing is just ridiculous. It's a joke." Truex added, "It's just crazy that all these races always come down to this. I just don't understand how guys can call themselves the best in the world when they just drive through everyone on restarts at the end of these races."
