Kyle Busch is about a fantastic run at this time and any chances post has to start with him.
And coming into a week with two successive wins and a race at a track at which he has three career victories, Busch is the man to beat once again. He’s the favorite heading to the STP 500 at Martinsville Speedway, the shortest track in NASCAR.
This week includes a couple of intriguing storylines as Joey Logano and Martin Truex Jr. butted heads, and cars, at last season’s playoff race in Martinsville while Logano came away with the win.
Logano has seven top-10 finishes in his last 10 races at Martinsville for example that win last season while Truex is no slouch himself with six top-seven finishes in his last seven attempts at the half-mile track. These men will fight it out again for the win, but they’ll likely be fighting Busch for the success.
At this point it would be absurd to pick anyone but Busch to win and that is what we’re doing. He has the best car and is outdriving everyone in NASCAR in the present time. He’s got a fantastic chance this week to maneuver Richard Petty with his 201st career win in NASCAR’s top three series.
The STP 500 can be viewed Sunday at 2 p.m. ET on FS1.
