With 18 of the 36 races completed, the course of the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season has proven to be virtually impossible to predict. 13 different winners have gone to Victory Lane in 18 races, and Tyler Reddick became the last driver to jump to the playoff grid last week at Road America. And with another potentially open career this weekend, Reddickâs big win may just be the tip of the iceberg in a rapidly changing playoff image.
The NASCAR Cup Series makes its second trip of the season to the Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Quaker State 400, a race that features one of the biggest wildcards of all pre-playoff races. After an exciting race in March that saw 46 leadership changes among 20 different drivers, the expectation is that Atlanta could be one of the best opportunities left for riders below the cut line to win a race, get on the playoff grid and completely change your seasons. – Drivers like Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Bubba Wallace and Corey LaJoie, all candidates for the spring race.
The Quaker State 400 starts at 3 pm ET, with TV coverage on USA Network and streaming on fuboTV (try it for free).
