Event Preview

The exciting racing on the NASCAR schedule continues this weekend, as the Quaker State 400 will be staged in Georgia. The field will complete a total of 400.4 miles on Sunday, which is made up by 260 laps of the EchoPark Speedway.

It has been an excellent In-Season campaign to this point for Chase Briscoe, with the American finishing in the top two places in the first two races. A first win of the season has achieved in emphatic fashion last time out, landing the eero 400.

Denny Hamlin will take confidence from his recent return to form, finishing third last Sunday. That was the first top-five finish for the Drivers’ Championship leader in three rounds. Tyler Reddick could do with a similar return to form after finishing outside of the top 20 in the last three races.

Ryan Blaney could be the most consistent driver on the grid at this moment, having finished in the top ten in the last seven races. Chase Elliott should also be competitive this weekend after twice winning the Quaker State 400.

Quaker State 400 Picks

A win looks to be on the horizon for Christopher Bell at this stage, after finishing second in two of the last eight rounds, including a runners-up finish last Sunday. Bell has finished in the top five in the opening two races of the In-Season Challenge.
