Kyle Larson once again re-established himself as the leading contender for the Drivers’ Championship last weekend after storming to success in the Bass Pro Shops Night Race. The victory saw Larson move to the top of the standings, clocking the fastest lap in the process.
Christopher Bell could only finish fifth last weekend, but despite that, he remains within striking distance of the top of the standings. There were weekends to forget for Tyler Reddick and William Byron, with both finishing outside of the top 15 places. Chase Elliott re-emerged as a leading contender after taking second behind Larson.
Hollywood Casino 400 Picks
Larson was at his dominant best in the night race last weekend, and he could be the standout pick to continue his dominance in a race that he previously claimed victory in back in 2021.
