You’ve gotta love a first time winner, right? A victory made from an epic side-by-side battle to the line. What you don’t love is a championship-caliber driver continuing to have costly mistakes on pit road and beef between a veteran driver and a young gun.
Join Taylor Kitchen on this episode of Above The Yellow Line to talk about the spring race at Bristol Motor Speedway.Dive into the stats and meaning behind Ty Gibbs’ first NASCAR Cup Series win. Then, let’s talk about another “what if” race for Ryan Blaney and his pit crew. We’ll chat about the beef between Riley Herbst and Kyle Busch along with some stats with teams like Front Row Racing, Trackhouse Racing, and Spire Motorsports. Then, I’ll get a bit controversial with a hot take on Bristol’s spring race and rate it above or below the yellow line.
