Hello.
Where It Is
Phoenix. Shorter track—just one mile—with a sweeping turn for the backstretch that makes it a tri-oval. It’s fairly flat, so it’s not too quick, but restarts get real wide, if I remember correctly.
When It Is
Green flag at 3:47 PM EDT

Who to Watch
Chase Elliott’s the narrow favorite, but he, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, and Kyle Larson are all between 11-to-2 and 15-to-2 on Bovada. Could go a lot of different ways.
How NASCAR Should Script It
I mean, if you really want to steer into the Kyle Larson thing, you can. Personally, I’d turn this into Elliott v. Hamlin v. Harvick. Have Logano in the mix. Have Kyle Busch in the mix. Get the stars back up front.
Trucks, Xfinity
No trucks this weekend. Austin Cindric won the Xfinity race. I don’t know what happened during it, but Josh Berry dropped one of these on Santino Ferrucci:
And yes, Josh Berry and Santino Ferrucci do sound like generic names for the American and the Italian in one of those Dave & Buster’s racing games.
