Pete Pistone breaks down all of the top headlines in NASCAR ahead of this weekend's Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
The biggest surprise of the four drivers entering Saturday night’s Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol has to be Denny Hamlin. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver joins teammate Martin Truex Jr., Brad Keselowski, and Harrison Burton in the quartet that needs to find a way to rise above the cutline or be eliminated from the Playoffs when the checkered flag flies Saturday night.
“I love the fact that we get to go there on the offense,” Hamlin said earlier this week on his podcast. “I’m going to be on offense the entire time.” Cindric’s crew chief Brian Wilson knows the Team Penske No. 2 team has more to potentially lose than gain by being overly aggressive at Bristol so a more conservative approach is the gameplan.
Lajoie, who came into this year with so much anticipation after showing promise in 2023, needs to demonstrate he can be more competitive. The RWR fleet has demonstrated prowess on superspeedways this year, but a more well-rounded performance is necessary for the overall good of the team. Strengthening the alignment further with Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing would be a benefit in accomplishing that goal.
