NASCAR races in New Hampshire on Monday after the Cup Series‘ lone race in New England this season was postponed Sunday due to inclement weather.
Only seven races remain until the 10-race, 16-driver playoffs begin, and 11 drivers have already locked up spots with wins – presuming there are not more than five new winners by the end of August.
William Byron, who scored his fourth win of the season last weekend at Atlanta, leads the standings and projected playoff points. Kyle Busch has three victories, and Martin Truex Jr. and Kyle Larson have two apiece.
Kevin Harvick (9th in the standings), Chris Buescher (11th) and Brad Keselowski (12th) are the highest ranked winless drivers, and Harvick and Keselowski are among the most successful active drivers at the Loudon, New Hampshire, track. Harvick has won four times, including back-to-back checkered flags in 2018 and 2019, while Keselowski has two wins, most recently in 2020.
Can Harvick or Keselowski get back to victory lane in New England? Will Buescher break through? Here is all the information you need to get ready for Sunday’s race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
