Event Preview

The final race before the All-Star weekend on the NASCAR schedule will come in the form of the AdventHealth 400. This weekend’s race will be staged at Kansas Speedway, and it will cover a total distance of 400.5 miles. It is one of two races that is held annually at the track, with the other coming in the form of the Hollywood Casino 400.

The AdventHealth 400 will see the drivers complete a total of 267 laps, with the crucial final stage seeing 102 laps completed. Denny Hamlin has been the most dominant driver in the history of the race, having recorded three previous wins. Meanwhile, Joe Gibbs Racing and Toyota are the most successful teams and manufacturer, respectively.

William Byron continues to lead the Drivers’ Championship at this crucial stage of the campaign. However, there will be pressure on the leader, as he is yet to win since landing the Daytona 500. Last weekend, he could only finish 13th in the Wurth 400.

Kyle Larson is looking menacing in the race for the championship. The former champion has won twice in the last six races, and he has achieved top five finishes in each of the last three.

Hamlin’s excellent record in Kansas City could also be hard to ignore, especially as he comes into the round in reliable form after winning two of the last five races.


AdventHealth 400 Picks

Christopher Bell’s winning run may have ended in recent weeks, but he remains a leading contender in the race for the championship this season. Bell has finished in the top ten in four of the last five races, and a return to winning ways could be a standout chance this weekend.
