The ratings are in for the incredible theatre that was the NASCAR Cup Series’ trip to Kansas Speedway for the AdVent Health 400 on Sunday. Rain put a slight damper on things, as the race was delayed a bit, which might’ve affected the ratings, according to Adam Stern of theSports Business Journal. Still, the number was a promising one for the sport. “.@FS1 got 2.296 million viewers for Sunday’s delayed NASCAR race at Kansas that featured the closest finish in the sport’s history, down 2% from 2.352 million for last year’s race that ran on time,” Stern posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Denny Hamlin is calling on NASCAR to upgrade its camera quality following the finish to Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway in which Kyle Larson edged out Chris Buescher by 0.001 seconds to steal the victory. Speaking on his “Actions Detrimental” podcast, Hamlin argued that because of where Larson was on the racetrack during the photo finish, it was difficult to make a decision on who won the race in the photo NASCAR pumped out to its social media channels. “I agree we should upgrade the camera slightly,” Hamlin said. “I think you could have said too close to call. It should have take...

Beginning in 2015, Darlington Raceway became home to NASCAR’s throwback weekend with teams honoring iconic paint schemes of the past. And for the past nine years, we’ve seen many great looks make a return, from Richard Petty’s Petty Blue/STP Day-Glo Red to Jeff Gordon’s Rainbow-Colored ride and everything else in between. But when it comes to the future of throwback weekend at Darlington, Denny Hamlin isn’t convinced it’ll have staying power much longer. Speaking on his “Actions Detrimental” podcast, Hamlin said he wouldn’t be surprised if this year was the final throwback weekend at Darlingto...

For all of the complaints of NASCAR’s Next Gen car, it sure seems to deliver more than often at intermediate racetracks. Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway was no exception. Some, including Kyle Petty, may go as far to say that Sunday’s race at Kansas was the best yet at an intermediate racetrack. “Do you guys remember when intermediate racetracks were a bore? No, I don’t remember it either. Not since NASCAR came out with the Next Gen,” Petty said. “This car puts on amazing races on intermediate tracks. And yesterday may be the greatest race we’ve seen yet on an intermediate track.” ...

New team, new ride — Noah Gragson is starting to figure it out in the NASCAR Cup Series. One year removed from a season in which he failed to record a single top 10 finish and received an indefinite suspension from Legacy Motor Club, Gragson has tallied five top 10s this season and three in-a-row dating back to Talladega. He finished ninth in Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway and subsequently earned some praise from one of NASCAR’s best. Speaking on his “Actions Detrimental” podcast, Denny Hamlin brought up Gragson’s recent string of quality finishes, saying he’s routinely been the ...

Shane van Gisbergen is drawing some inspiration from the land Down Under for this Saturday’s Crown Royal Purple Bag Project 200 at Darlington Raceway. Trackhouse Racing announced Monday that van Gisbergen’s No. 97 Chevrolet will honor former NASCAR driver and Australian native Marcos Ambrose Ambrose, who last competed in a NASCAR race in 2014, enjoyed a highly decorated career in the Supercars Championship, like van Gisbergen. Ambrose won back-to-back titles in 2003 and ’04, winning 28 races and tallying 66 podiums. He made the transition to NASCAR full-time in 2007, winning five Xfinity and t...

Denny Hamlin had control of Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway, leading the field for the final restart during overtime. Unfortunately for Hamlin, Kyle Larson was not to be stopped from claiming his second victory of the season. Larson made it three-wide going into Turn 1 between he, Hamlin and Chris Buescher, leaving Hamlin in the middle. Trapped in the middle, Hamlin was passed by both Larson and Buescher, as well as Chase Elliott and Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Martin Truex Jr. Hamlin, who finished fifth, detailed on his “Actions Detrimental” what went wrong for him during the overt...

The AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway has reaffirmed the fastest drivers in the NASCAR Power Rankings with a little movement this week. Kyle Larson finally grabbed his second win after being in contention almost on a weekly basis. The speed of Larson is evident. The same goes for Denny Hamlin. However, there is a lot to be determined about the rest of the field. You could argue that the top-10 outside of the few drivers at the top could all be moved around and plugged in here or there. With that in mind, let’s get into it. Kansas gave us a great race, perhaps the best of the entire season. I...

Kyle Petty still hasn’t caught his breath after seeing the finish to Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway in which Kyle Larson edged out Chris Buescher by 0.001 seconds for the win. Petty, speaking in a NASCAR.com video on Monday, broke down the final restart during overtime, detailing the moves Larson made to put himself in position to win. As Petty put it, there’s a reason why Larson is a Cup Series champion after all. “We come down to that last restart,” Petty said. “Denny Hamlin has control of the race. Chris Buescher shows why he is a Cup driver and a potential and could be very s...

Erik Jones is among the 36 NASCAR Cup Series drivers entered into the field for this Sunday’s Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway, per Bob Pockrass of FOX Sports. Jones has missed the last two races after suffering a spinal fracture during the Lap 157 wreck at Talladega last month. Jones, diagnosed with a compression fracture in his lower vertebra, was replaced in the No. 43 Toyota by Corey Heim. Heim finished 25th in his Cup Series debut at Dover and 22nd at Kansas. Legacy Motor Club announced last week that doctors approved Jones to return behind the wheel, though he sat out of the race at Ka...
