Seeking his first NASCAR Cup Series win since June 4, 2023, Kyle Busch spent much of Sunday’s race at Circuit of The Americas in position to end his lengthy drought. But when the checkered flag waved on the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix, Busch wasn’t out front. Instead, the Richard Childress Racing driver was fifth. So, what […]
Before the green flag waves on this weekend’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Circuit of The Americas in Austin, Texas, Austin Cindric wanted to get on the same page with fellow driver Kyle Larson. The two collided while racing for the lead in the final laps of last Sunday’s race at Atlanta Motor Speedway, with […]
Once considered the NASCAR Cup Series’ resident road course king, Chase Elliott hasn’t been to Victory Lane on a road circuit since the debut of the Next Generation Cup Series car in 2022. That’s pretty hard to believe when considering Elliott’s overall record at tracks that require both left-hand and right-hand turns. Will this be […]

An already blockbuster week for Dale Earnhardt Jr. and JR Motorsports culminated in style at Sunday’s Daytona 500. After qualifying for The Great American Race with a ninth-place finish in Thursday’s Duel at Daytona, Justin Allgaier — a full-time NASCAR Xfinity Series driver for JR Motorsports — delivered another ninth-place finish for the company in […]
By any objective analysis, all the stars had to align perfectly for William Byron to win Sunday’s Daytona 500. But Byron, whose No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet was five rows back coming to the white flag, bristles at any suggestion that his second consecutive victory in The Great American Race was some kind of fluke.
