The playoff race heats up as NASCAR journeys to Richmond, VA for the Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway. The Olympic hiatus was enjoyable for all involved, but I believe I can speak for everyone when I say we’re eager to return to racing. Approaching the final chapter of the Chase for the Cup playoffs marks our entry into the season’s 23rd race—an exhilarating event awaits us. Historically, this track served as the season finale during the era of the Chase; however, a few seasons back NASCAR decided to switch things up by placing this event within the ten races of the Chase playoff series. It was in 2022 that NASCAR reassigned this race to a more pivotal position affecting playoff qualifications. Unlike past events where points determined playoff advancement, here drivers compete aggressively for standings within their groups in pursuit of making it into contention. Observing prior to our Olympic break noted an uptick in risk-taking behavior among drivers as we near regular season conclusions. Racing will ramp up intensity—expect more contact and greater risks as we head back to Richmond’s compact oval track.
This short track brings together a cohort of drivers proficient on similar circuits; looking back over their performances offers insights into who’s likely vying for supremacy here. Several drivers over their last forty races have consistently achieved average finishes within the top ten—these include Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch, Joey Logano, Christopher Bell and Josh Berry among others. Notably, both Hamlin and Busch maintain driver ratings exceeding 100 at this venue.
Brickyard 400 Recap
Kyle Larson celebrated victory by claiming first place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 21—a significant milestone marking not only his fourth win this season but also his illustrious career’s twenty-seventh triumph in Cup Series history.
