What’s At Stake?
With four winners throughout the first six races, securing success at Bristol means an almost spot in the postseason. Stage points are also important, along with the mythical bullring could provide some unforeseen outcomes.
Brad Keselowski scored his second win of the year following a dominant showing at Martinsville. Back-to-back successes were scored by the 2012 winner in 2011 and 2012, but hasn’t won at Bristol since then. Can he carry on the momentum?
Kevin Harvick is now third in the standings but has yet to win a race this season. The 2015 champion has two wins in 30 races in the track, but his form has improved with seven consecutive top 10 finishes. Bristol might not be the most likely place for Harvick’s first win of the year, however, the bullring always has a surprise or two in store.
Do not rely out Kurt Busch. The elder Busch brother is second among active drivers with five wins at the bullring. The 2004 winner is also the most recent winner at the track, having secured an unexpected victory past summer.

Together with seven wins at Bristol, with all those coming at the spring race, championship leader Kyle Busch is the clear favorite. Following a solid start to the season, the driver of the #18 Joe Gibbs Racing car has yet to finish outside the top 10 throughout six races. Busch includes two race wins and a series-leading four stage victories to his name.
Joey Logano heads a three dimensional tie to the third most wins at the track among active drivers. The reigning Monster Power Cup Series winner has two wins in the track, his latest success being back-to-back wins at the summertime back in 2014 and 2015. Logano has seven top 10 finishes in the last ten races in Bristol, and even though the #22 might be the most dominant driver in the track, he still figures among the favorites.
