Master of ‘The Monster’: Johnson Seeks No. 10 at Dover

By Jared Turner Will Jimmie Johnson continue Dover dominance this weekend? It’s not all too often that one driver is an overwhelming favorite to win entering a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series weekend. Sunday's race at Dover International Speedway is one of those rare occasions. With a record nine victories at Dover, including two in the past three races at the 1-mile oval, Jimmie Johnson is the oddsmakers' clear pick to get it done in the FedEx 400 benefiting Autism Speaks. “I absolutely love Dover,” the Hendrick Motorsports driver said. “It is one of my favorite tracks by far. We have run so…

Fuel strategy gives Carl Edwards first win at Charlotte

May 24, 2015 By Reid Spencer NASCAR Wire Service CONCORD, N.C. – Will the mystery winner of Sunday night’s Coca-Cola 600 enter and sign in please? Hint: It’s the guy who does back flips every time he takes the checkered flag. But for the first 370 of 400 laps at Charlotte Motor Speedway, no one would have picked Carl Edwards or his No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota as the likely winner of the season’s 12th NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. Martin Truex Jr., Kurt Busch and Denny Hamlin had spent the lion’s share of time at the head of the field,…

Almirola Enjoys Racing For “The King” of NASCAR

By Ben White The number 43 is widely associated with seven-time champion Richard Petty. The winner of 200 Cup races enjoyed an incredible career as a driver from 1958 to 1992. Many have wheeled the famed Petty machines since his retirement and currently, the job falls to Aric Almirola. Last July, he became the first driver to take the No. 43 back to victory lane at Daytona International Speedway since Petty won his final race there in July of 1984. The Cuban-American standout competitor is most appreciative of the opportunity to carry on such a storied tradition for Richard Petty Motorsports. “That’s…

Coca-Cola 500 Preview: The Ultimate Endurance Test

By Jared Turner In stark contract to last weekend’s Sprint All-Star Race, a 110-lap affair that practically feels like it’s over before it starts, this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600 is an endurance test unrivaled by any other event on the annual Sprint Cup calendar. Six hundred miles and 400 laps, the Coca-Cola 600 is 100 miles longer than any other race on the Sprint Cup schedule. It begins at 6 p.m. – in the heat of the day – and ends some four-and-a-half hours later in the cool of the night. Being fast at the start doesn’t mean a driver will be fast…
