The Charlotte Roval! The Nascar Cup Series visited Charlotte Motor Speedway located in Charlotte, North Carolina for the “ Bank of America ROVAL 400”. Kyle Larson picked up the win today and his 7th this season. For a career total this is win number 13 of Larson’s smooth sailing career.

Today was the round of 12 cut of line. Four drivers were going to be eliminated no matter what happened this afternoon. William Byron, Kevin Harvick, Christopher Bell and Alex Bowman were all eliminated after today’s race. Harvick crashed out towards the end of the race, followed by Byron spinning out competing for position. Ultimately this led to Larson beating out Tyler Reddick for today’s race win.

Then there were eight. The Round of 8 kicks off next Sunday after today’s cutoff race. Kyle Larson, Denny Hamlin, Martin Truex Jr, Ryan Blaney, Kyle Busch, Chase Elliot, Joey Logano and Brad Keslowski all advance to the next round. Texas Motor Speedway October 17th, Kansas Speedway October 24th and Martinsville Speedway October 31st is where the Nascar Cup Series will compete for the next three weeks. As the next round is around the corner we will see what unfolds in the coming race dates.

In my opinion today was good. Weather wasn’t a problem, which let the race play out. In my opinion this helped this afternoon's race. All the dominoes fell in favor of Nascar which put the fate of the race in the drivers hands. The Roval brought excitement, joy, intensity and grit to today’s competition. Drivers duked it out this afternoon to see who will fight another weekend until the championship race. Overall I would give today a 9 out of 10. This weekend spices things up for Texas this upcoming weekend.

"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.

(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

  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
