" Talladega Race Review"

 


What a Wild Finish! The Nascar Cup Series visited Talladega, Alabama for the “Geico 500”. Talladega Superspeedway didn’t disappoint with huge wrecks, pit road penalties and long days for drivers and crews. Brad Keslowski takes home the checkered flag, with a last lap pass for the lead. With this win Brad moves up in the record books, with now having six wins at Talladega Superspeedway. He ties Nascar legends and hall of famers Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jeff Gordon for second all time. 


                                           Here's a video of Joey Logano fliping causing a huge wreck.




Another view of Logano's flip.

Driver's were visually frustrated, but going 200 miles in hour doesn't help it. Drivers were complaining about heat, tires and more. With superspeedway racing, expect the unexpected. Today’s race result added another winner to the list for this season. This makes 9 different winners in 10 different races. The playoff spots are filling up fast, this is making every race count. Teams are starting to hit the panic button, 9 out of 16 spots for the playoffs are filled. Teams will have to win to get in, 7 spots remain with only 16 races left until the playoffs.

My Personal opinion on today’s race, it was entertaining. Easy and simple, if you watched today’s race you weren’t left disappointed. Many drivers and crews had an eventful day and fans weren’t left disappointed. I was on the edge of my seat all race long and I am very proud of today’s action.



As we rap up from Talladega Superspeedway, today was great. The action was very interesting to watch and it all resulted in a great finish. The Nascar Cup Series heads to Kansas Speedway, in Kansas City, Kansas for the “ Buschy McBusch race 400”. May 2nd, Sunday only on Fox.

"Homestead Miami Race Review"

  Justin Glenn  3/1/21 2:11pm Homestead Miami Race Review The “ Homestead Miami Speedway” Is where the Nascar Cup Series race ended yesterday ending in good fashion. Yesterday’s race resulted in a great win for William Byron, but also showed some new faces up front. Here is Yesterday's closing laps. William Byron took the checkered flag to record his second career win and first of this 2021 season. The Nascar Cup Series and also the Truck and Xfinity Series will be back in action six days from now at the For the Pennzoil 400 at 3:30 on FOX. My personal Opinion:  I thought this was a pretty solid race, it definitely didn’t show the balance in the field as people will be looking for next week. But all in all it was a pretty good race but as already known Sunday, Las Vegas is next as week 4 of this Nascar season rolls on heading in to the west coast swing.

  Racing in New Hampshire!  The Nascar Cup Series visited New Hampshire Motor Speedway, located in Loudon, New Hampshire, for the Ambetter 301.  In a ground-shaking way, Christopher Bell takes home the checkered flag.  This is Christopher Bell’s 2nd career win, and first of the 2022 season.  Bell is now the 14th different winner in 20 races.  Bell jumps the playoff standings and stamps his ticket to the 2022 Nascar playoffs. (Christopher Bell Burning it down Post-Race) Entering this afternoon in New Hampshire, only three spots were left for the playoffs.  Today, Christopher Bell, at arguably his best track, takes away one of those spots.  Christopher Bell entered this weekend with an up and down stretch after leaving Atlanta Motor Speedway.  Bell’s #20 Joe Gibbs Racing machine, showed up with speed, as that paid dividends this afternoon.  The 27-year-old raced hard today, as he took the lead from Chase Elliott which was eventually for the win.  He was one of the many Toyota drivers to

Homestead-Miami Race Review and Analysis

  The long-awaited return to Homestead-Miami, Florida. After a year and a half, the Nascar Cup Series made its return to Homestead-Miami Speedway. Kyle Larson, in a dominant, and almost perfect afternoon, took home the checkered flag.  This is Larson's 3rd win of the 2022 season and the 19th of his career.  Larson swept both stages 1 and 2.  (Kyle Larson with the Homestead-Miami Trophy) Let’s go through today’s race, John Hunter Nemechek, after running 4th for most of stage 1, spun coming out of turn 1.  This derailed Nemechek’s promising weekend, as he finished 27th.  Chase Briscoe, who is now in a must-win situation, was done for the day by the end of stage 2. After contact with the outside wall, Briscoe’s afternoon was done. Tyler Reddick had a hard hit into the outside wall with 22 laps to go. Reddick, running the outside lane, got loose, and made heavy contact with the inside wall on the back straightaway, coming out of turn 2. Lastly, Kyle Larson spun Martin Truex Jr. on pit
