Kyle Larson
Kyle Larson is the reigning NASCAR Cup Series Champion and leads the win list in 2021. Larson won Saturday's Wise Power 400 race at Auto Club Speedway. It was the second official race for the season and the first Cup Series race at this intermediate track since 2020. Larson had struggled in practice yesterday and the crew overnight made adjustments to the car that allowed it to handle better than the other drivers' cars.
Kevin Harvick
The Sprint Cup Series champion has a dream weekend. Kevin Harvick has never won Fontana's Sprint Cup Series race before this year. However, the win will put him on track for his sixth career appearance at Victory Lane. Kevin Harvick's car was the class of the field most of the afternoon, particularly on the long runs. Six cautions were waved over the 200-lap event. With three laps remaining Kyle Busch blew a tire, and the lead was lost. Although the team attempted to replace the tire, it was insufficient.
Austin Dillon
Austin Dillon is not just the driver who won the Xfinity Series race. Richard Childress, Austin's grandfather, is also there to congratulate the young driver. Dillon was a top-10 finisher at the 2.0 mile track in each of the last two years. Dillon is also the first driver to win Auto Club 400 in consecutive year. He will also be racing in the upcoming 2021 Bluegreen Vacations Duel 2 at Daytona.
Alex Bowman
Alex Bowman has won four races during his career, including Auto Club 400. The Fontana speedway's two-mile Fontana track was the first time the top division driver had won the 24th annual race. Bowman won 110 laps, finishing 8.9 seconds faster than his closest competitor Kyle Busch. He advanced to Round of Eight. Kyle Busch finished second and Kurt Busch finished third. Ryan Blaney finished eighth, after a loose wheel caused by Ryan Blaney. Bowman is a great racer, but this year's competition will be fierce.
Kurt Busch
Kurt Busch and Kyle Busch were the winners of this weekend's auto club speedway. Kurt Busch was a rookie driver at the track and took the lead on lap one. He held on to that position until the end. After battling Kyle Larson for the lead on lap one, Busch took the lead and swept Larson out of turn 4. Busch has now won two consecutive races at Auto Club Speedway.

They can pass other drivers at high speeds, then pull away when they aren't looking. This gives them an advantage in racing.
Lightweight cars are often the fastest. This allows them accelerate quickly and gain speed. But this also means that they have less energy, which can limit how far they can travel in short periods of time. Therefore, they must use energy efficiently.
Engines power most modern-day racing cars. These engines are identical to those used in passenger vehicles. These engines use compressed air instead of petrol. Because petrol is not powerful enough to give a car enough power to go fast, this is why these engines use compressed air.
