Christopher Bell moved to the top of the standings last weekend after finishing 14th in the Go Bowling at the Glen. However, the driver has a slim advantage, with both Austin Cindric and Joey Logano within striking range at the summit. Denny Hamlin will likely be a prominent selection this weekend after winning two of the previous five editions of the night race.
Kyle Larson is also a former winner of the race, and he will be hoping for a better result this weekend after finishing 12th in the previous round. The increased pressure this weekend will be on Martin Truex Jr and Harrison Burton, who are right on the cut off for the next round of the playoffs.
