StatChat - NASCAR Cup Series @ Charlotte
Chase Elliott may not have been complaining about the weather in victory lane last weekend, but the NASCAR Cup Series will hope for some clearer skies this Sunday as they tackle Charlotte Motor Speedway. Compared to last year’s field, we already have 3 new drivers locked into playoff spots this year (Larson, Bell, McDowell), and they may not be the only 3 to make it after missing the playoffs last year. Chase Elliott’s win last weekend didn’t do much to upset the status quo, as he was expected to make the playoffs. However, bubble drivers Matt DiBenedetto and Kurt Busch (both playoff drivers in 2020) are currently on the outside looking in. The struggling Stewart-Haas drivers, Cole Custer and Aric Almirola, will likely need a win to get back in, as their point totals are nearing ‘too far’ territory. Chris Buescher and Tyler Reddick both missed the playoffs last year, but are currently in on points. Each of them will be trying to make the play...
The Playoff Forecast - Week 15 @ Charlotte
Welcome to our NASCAR Cup Series Projections page. The Playoff Forecast is where you will find the probability of each 2021 charter making the playoffs, their chances of advancing to future rounds, and also their odds of winning the Championship. Projections are calculated by simulating the 2021 Cup Series schedule 50,000 times, using a top-secret predictive formula that is based on 3 important factors: Driver History @ Each Track, Driver Recent Overall History, and Team Performance. This page will be updated every week, incorporating each week’s real results to (ideally) make the formula more accurate. Keep checking back to see how your favorite driver’s odds change from week to week! *note – As 2021 is this project’s first season, some of the underlying formulas and data were tweaked after race 10 in order to better reflect the parity in the NASCAR Cup Series. Forecast – After Race 14 Projected Winner of...
Charlotte Roval Cup Series Recap
The Roval weekend has came and went, and it was a bit of a let down in my opinion. This year was NASCAR's third attempt at the Charlotte infield road course, and it was the most boring of the three. Based on the history of the Roval with its crazy finishes, as well as Saturday's Xfinity race, the expectations were sky high...and it flopped. Even though it didn't meet those full expectations the end resulted in a satisfying race winner for many fans...Chase Elliott. Stage 1 was the best stage of the race in my opinion. Although it wasn't raining, seeing the Cup guys starting a race on the rain tires for the first time ever was unique. Starting on the rain tires allowed for early race strategy, and when the first caution happened Ty Dillon and Matt DiBenedetto changed to "slick" tires to fly through the field, and Dillon snagged a stage win. Full-time underdog Timmy Hill also earned a career best stage finish of fifth place. Stage 2 had a r...
NASCAR's All-Star Event Moving to TEXAS in 2021
First reported by Jordan Bianchi of The Athletic, NASCAR's famed All-Star Event will be at its third location in three years. The event will move to Texas Motor Speedway in 2021. In exchange for the All-Star date, they will give up one of their regular season dates in the 2021 Cup Series schedule. The event was hosted by Charlotte for over 30 consecutive seasons before being hosted by Bristol Motor Speedway in 2020. All three tracks are owned by parent company Speedway Motorsports. The new opening in the schedule may allow for NASCAR's first event at Circuit of The Americas (COTA) in Austin. ( Twitter.com/Jeff_Gluck )
