Man, SVG is so good. He made 3 brilliant moves in that race. The last restart was just magical. His moves down the straight before the tuen navigating cars as he moved inside. Then the ability to slow down without getting hit - all these are super awareness moves. Then takes the turn and scoots past all the other cars for the lead. He came out of pits 4th but a few cars stayed out so he was 6th or 7th in restart.

Gonna be hard to beat him Sunday

Wow, this site is a game changer! I clicked in safari and it works. The amount of data is huge!

Click on a driver's row in the main table to see their profile, and select them as the "detail driver" for the charts.
If you register (completely free) you can select your favorite drivers in your profile or by clicking on the star in their profile to have them highlighted.



One of my favorite features is the "circle" map, which shows where each vehicle is on an idealized circle representing the lap time of the leader. Lap down cars are closer to the center. The Octagon indicates where your selected detail driver would emerge if they pit.



I find the ? Driver chart the most valuable during a race; it sets your detail driver as the 0 basis, and shows how the delta of the drivers ahead and behind them evolves over the race. If the lines are going down, the detail driver is passing them.



The Violin Chart compares selected drivers' lap times to each other. This is essentially a histogram of each driver's lap times, tilted on its side; the lower and closer they are together, the better.




The points table shows both the current points earned through the race (stage points) and projected points based on current running position, as well as each driver's place in the standings, and position to the cutline.



Each driver's profile now also includes their full team from the Jayski roster, and if you click on pit crew members, you can see who they most regularly work with and their recent performance across all 3 series.

This race should have started an hour and a half ago.

Is it my imagination, or has Mike Joy now said something about it being Ramadan twice in the pre-race stuff?

I have my back turned with the coverage on in the background but I could have swore I heard him say something twice.

Alex Bowman began feeling ill in the car and had to get out. They go Myatt Snider, who competes part-time in the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and also works as a pit spotter for Fox, to get in the car and finish the race.

Reddick going full beast mode to start the season. Love it! Bubba almost with a 3rd-straight top-10 finish as well. 23XI baby.

Reddick wins again. First driver in Cup Series history to win the first three races of the season.

Motorsports fans in a rough spot after today. Our only hope for a semblance of parody is, gulp, f1.

McDowell with a nice top 5 today, but Hocevar was MIA until we heard about him wrecking with one to go.
