The NASCAR Cup Series hits the Brickyard, following an exciting weekend of racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway that saw Scott Dixon win the IndyCar Gallagher Grand Prix and Ty Gibbs win the NASCAR Xfinity Series Pennzoil 150 – both on Saturday.
Now it's time for Cup drivers to tackle the road course at IMS with just three races remaining before the playoffs begin. Sunday's race marks the first of two consecutive road course-races with Watkins Glen to follow next weekend before the regular season ends on the 2.5-mile oval at Daytona International Speedway with a night race on Saturday, Aug. 26.
Indianapolis could provide a prime opportunity for a winless driver to clinch one of the four remaining playoff berths with a victory or for bubble drivers to boost their points. AJ Allmendinger, who currently sits 19th in the standings and outside the cut line, surely must be salivating after winning the Cup race at IMS in 2021 and finishing seventh last year after winning the 2022 Xfinity race. Another driver outside the cut line, Austin Cindric (21st in points), has to feel some confidence racing on the Brickyard road course as well after finishing second last year and ninth in 2021, one day after winning that year's Xfinity race.
