Powerhouse Performers Set to Ignite Texas Track!
The NASCAR Cup teams are back, burning rubber on the Texas Motor Speedway this Sunday! Eyes on the prize at 3 p.m. ET on FS1. Remember Kyle Larson's electrifying win in Vegas? He's the chart-topper in the Cup standings and the Texas tracks ain't new territory for him! And boy, does William Byron know how to rack up those wins. With three under his belt this season, he's gunning for glory in Texas once more.
Larson's on point — leading the pack with stats shouting dominance: eight races, four top-10 finishes, and a cool 454 laps led. Texas? He's conquered this colosseum before, landing wins both in the final Gen 6 race and the 2021 All-Star Race. Want another name to bet on? Byron. This speedster's past performance at the sprawling 1.5-mile track includes five top-10 finishes, and he's the reigning champ, with top-10 spots secured in the latest Next Gen races.
But wait, there's more! Denny Hamlin and Bubba Wallace are sliding into the favorites list too. Hamlin, with a total of 14 wins on intermediate tracks, last tasted Texas victory in 2019. And Wallace? He's hit the throttle hard, winning poles and proving he's a force to be reckoned with on 1.5-mile tracks.
The Wildcards Entering the Texas Fray
Jimmie Johnson isn't sweating the points, but he's got a history on this track that can't be ignored. With seven wins under his belt, he's looking to rekindle his past Texas glory. Chase Elliott is in it to win it too, with a recent upward trend in top-10 finishes. Although his past performance in Texas hasn't been dazzling, this might just be his breakout moment!
If you're looking for a comeback kid, keep your eyes peeled for Austin Dillon. Despite a rocky season start, his record on 1.5-mile tracks suggests there's hope yet. And Kyle Busch, sitting in 15th and known for his Texas triumphs, is hungry to get back on top after some recent bumps in the road.
Get your engines started, NASCAR fans! The Texas Motor Speedway is about to set the stage for a faceoff that has everyone wondering — who will be crowned the Lone Star speed king? Catch all the high-speed action and find out whose victory burnouts will mark the Texas tracks!
Sparks Will Fly with NASCAR's Finest at Texas Showdown!
Hold onto your helmets, race fans! NASCAR's elites are burning rubber back at Texas Motor Speedway for a high-octane Sunday faceoff! Can Kyle Larson keep blazing the trail as the Cup's top dog? He's got the trophy from Vegas, but don't count out William Byron; he's packing a triple win punch this season. And what about Denny Hamlin with his double W's and Bubba Wallace with that pole victory swagger? It's a dicey track record waiting to be wrecked.
Can the Veterans Outrun Father Time?
All eyes on Jimmie Johnson, the seven-time Texas champ! He's not pocketing points this year, but don't let that fool ya – this old gun's got nothing to lose and everything to prove. And don't even get us started on Chase Elliott. Sure, he's been hit-miss on the 1.5-milers, but with recent top 10s, he's lookin' to rewrite his Texas tale.
Watch Out for the Wildcards!
Get ready to cheer (or jeer) for the under-radar heavy hitters like Austin Dillon and Kyle Busch. With Dillon’s win in 2020 and Busch's four Texas crowns, could these dark horses be primed to steal the showcase? Place your bets, folks!
