Last weekend, there were many numbers that would come out of the victory of Austin Cindric in Taldega, but it was another market in which Nascar felt that the superspeedway product should be advocated.
Nascar competition Senior Vice President Elton Sawyer, Racing Penske teammate Joey Logano (then disqualified) by his harsh criticism, despite his harsh criticism, Cindric's third career won did this after.
Sawyer, “You are looking at the statistics after the race and you have 67 lead changes between 23 different drivers.” He said. “When we look at all this, what are we trying to fix? What does we want what we want?”
For beginners, real transition. Perhaps this Sunday will be different when it hosts the 45th Nascar Cup series event at Texas Motor Speedway.
The numbers in Talladega and sister Track Daytona can be a bit misleading when it comes to leaders, and lead changes in a two -wide package, a driver in front of a round of 2 feet leads to 3 feet back to the driver next to the driver.
Anthony Alfredo was the most frequent leader in Sunday's Talladega, who entered the race seven times for 19 rounds for family beard motor sports.
Cindric, a tugboat in a front -inch front row, filled the field five times for seven rounds in the last 17 circuits, while the other line 1 calm Ryan Preece (then DQ't) led four times for six rounds.
However, the 25th running Cindric's three -second plus was the last pit stop due to the lead after the lead had two width until the end.
The problem of the next gene car on two giant roads may be inequality in speed.
Zane Smith won the first career post on Saturday at a speed of 182,174 miles. Nevertheless, during the race, Michael McDowell took the Xfinity fastest tour award – One Cup Championship in the hottest round of the next gene car.
Very few drivers are likely to come out of an open strip to hope that only one of the 12 rows deep, two -wide strips will come, otherwise they may drop about 20 miles / hour at speed and go behind the package.
So what's in Texas Motor Speedway?
Hendrick Motorsports' Chase Elliott won the first time with a three late restart to win a double -resingdum via Brad Keselowski in a wildly popular race, in his standing alone in the Oval Lone Star State.
The race was tight in the first victory of Elliott in his first victory since Taldega, in a playoff racing win.
The planned 267-round event-passing year 276 went-a runway record 16 warnings, 13 different leaders (seven double-digit tour hints) and finishing 3 1/2 hours.
Hendrick driver Kyle Larson started the pole for the third race in a row and seemed to have the best car after 77 rounds of racing height, but fell during a right rear tire in Chevrolet number 5.
Kyle Busch (four wins) and Denny Hamlin (three).
In total, 24 different drivers won a trophy event in Texas, and this Sunday is eight of those who are active. In the last eight races, eight different winners took place.
