Intense restarts and a tight races are expected today, as the Nascar Cup series returns to Kansas Speedway.
Last fall’s race had 30 lead changes and this event a year ago had 28 leading changes, and ended when Kyle Larson Chris Buescher beat at the NASCAR history at 0.001 seconds.
Larson starts on the pole for today’s race, while Buescher will start next to him on the front row.
The duel between the two is one of the things to watch today.
The 1.5 -mile oval recently had a diverse grid of winners and close finishes.
A new winner today?
There were seven different winners in the first 11 races of this season.
Kansas Speedway was recently a good job for drivers who achieved their first win of the year. This happened in four of the last six races on this 1.5 mile track.
Among those without a win this season are: Chris Buescher (start second), Tyler Reddick (fourth), Ty Gibbs (sixth), Daniel Suarez (eighth), Chase Elliott (ninth), Ryan Blaney (10th), Michael McDowell (11th) and Justin Haley (12th).
Ross Chastain won last fall’s play -off match on Kansas Speedway and has scored five top -10s over the past seven races.
3 in a row?
Team Penske goes for his third consecutive win of the season after Austin Cindric won two weeks ago at Talladega and won Joey Logano on Texas.
Ryan Blaney is the only team of PenSke driver to win this season.
“It was nice to have really fast cars this year,” Blaney said. ‘Hopefully we can get to Victory Lane soon. I was very happy with how we acted. It just didn’t really work out for us. ‘
Team Penske will start two cars in the Top 10 Sunday. Logano qualified fifth and Blaney 10th. Cindric starts 13th.
4 The right number?
23xi Racing has four cars in Sunday’s race. The team is full -time cars for Bubba Wallace, Tyler Reddick and Riley Herbst. The organization will also have Corey Heim in a fourth car on Sunday.
23xi Racing won three of the last six cup races on Kansas Speedway and this track is a good point for the team, which has not yet been to win this season.
Reddick starts fourth, Wallace 15th, Herbst 25th and Heim 28th.
23xi Racing’s last win came to Homestead during last year’s play -off match.
