With Talladega Superspeedway on the horizon, teams map out strategies for the unpredictable track as the playoffs heat up. Kevin Harvick and his crew offered their pick for the YellaWood 500, underscoring how prognostication can be as important as pace in a race where anything can happen.
Early odds show a four-way tie at the top — Byron, Blaney, Logano and Cindric — reflecting a highly competitive field heading into the Talladega weekend. Cup and Xfinity previews keep fans informed on the pace and purse for the weekend.
Ryan Blaney remains optimistic that Talladega — and Martinsville to follow — could provide a viable route to the title, a perspective echoed by several title contenders. Sponsors and teams are also rolling out event-specific updates, including RaceTrac and Sysco's presence on Cole Custer's No. 41 at Talladega.
