Another superspeedway race and another fuel-saving battle between the NASCAR Cup Series field in the Geico 500. Drivers are only holding their throttle down about 50%-60% and it’s leading to some complaints from drivers, media members and fans alike.
Already we have seen drivers like BJ McLeod and Justin Haley lead the race. Drivers who normally aren’t able to keep pace with everyone else. However, the slowed-down pace of this race allowed them to make moves to the front.
Erik Jones was not a fan of it. He and his team talked about different ways to fix the issue. Maybe make it so drivers have to push the pace?
Toby Christie had a very interesting idea. What is stopping a group of drivers from joining each other and making their own pack to draft with?
This is a developing story…
