Jacques Villeneuve makes a return to the premier competition
It is exciting to see Jacques Villeneuve return in the NASCOAR series premier competition. Villeneuve had been away from the race scene for several decades, but recently moved to Montreal. Though he doesn't have the NASCAR charter, he hopes to race at Daytona. Villeneuve is a grandson of the famous Gilles Villeneuve. Villeneuve is a Montreal resident and is thinking about racing in NASCAR Nationwide Series.
The Canadian driver has won Formula One titles and won the Indy 500. Although he's only made four NASCAR Cup Series starts, he won the Indianapolis 500 twice. His best finish in NASCAR Cup Series came at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway where he finished 29th. However, his comeback is still very strong. Next-generation cars have identical chassis and offer similar performance levels. Villeneuve, 50 years old has never lost a race.
Austin Cindric gives Ford the first victory in the Next Gen era of NASCAR by giving it to NASCAR historians
Austin Cindric made NASCAR's history when he offered Ford the first win in the Next Generation era. He won 500 Miles of Daytona, under Overtime. He was able to withstand pressure from Ryan Blaney and Bubba Wallace (teammate of Michael Air Jordan). The No. 22 Ford team won the Xfinity Series and Cindric finished second in the Driver's title.
Already four wins were recorded in the next Gen of NASCAR. Ford and Ford teams have worked together in order to provide the best conditions for their drivers on the final restart. Team Penske won 85 NCS races for Ford. Since joining Ford, 58 of these have been won by Team Penske. Cindric also became the youngest ever winner in series history at 16 years 10 months and nine day.
Tyler Reddick wins Kwik Trip 250 at Road America
Tyler Reddick was the winner of the Kwiktrip 250 presented By Jockey Club. This weekend marked a milestone in Cup Series history. Tyler Reddick is the fifth Cup Series rookie this year to win a race, and his victory is the 13th different first-time winner in 18 races. Reddick's victory at Road America is his first in his professional career and makes him one the top contenders to make the playoffs.
It was quite a surprise that he won this race, considering that he had been a regular runner-up in previous races. This victory is especially sweet considering that he had previously finished several races in second and third. The frustration of finishing behind other drivers has caused Reddick to finally make history at Road America. He has now moved one step closer toward a championship with this victory.
Kyle Busch leads Kevin Harvick
Even though Kyle Busch is still without a win this season in the Daytona 500, he did run some strong races. While Harvick's recent struggles at the Daytona 500 have been widely reported, Kyle Busch's impressive performance at the Explore the Mountains 400 earlier this month was also a highlight. The former runnerup nearly fell out of the race during Stage 2 but was forced to make an emergency pit stop. Kyle Busch is a leading contender for the championship and his recent struggles have only added to his legend.
With less than two hours to go, the race restarts on USA Network. It was originally scheduled to start at 8 p.m. ET, but NASCAR had to delay the race by two hours because of bad weather. The race will now begin on October 10th. ET and can be streamed online. While Busch leads Kevin Harvick, he still has to face a tough battle to maintain his lead.
