As the NASCAR Cup Series continues with its playoffs, all eyes are on the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway this weekend. With only eight races left in the season, the pressure is on for drivers to secure their spot in the championship round at Phoenix Raceway.
Heading into this weekend’s race, several drivers are considered top contenders for the win. Kyle Larson, who has been dominant all season long, is coming off a win last weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Larson has shown impressive speed on intermediate tracks like Kansas Speedway, and he will undoubtedly be a force to be reckoned with on Sunday.
Another driver to watch is Denny Hamlin, who has also been a consistent performer this season. Hamlin has yet to secure a win in the playoffs, but he has consistently run up front and has had success at Kansas Speedway in the past. With a strong team behind him, Hamlin will be looking to cement his spot in the championship round with a win this weekend.
Chase Elliott, the defending Cup Series champion, is another driver to keep an eye on this weekend. Elliott has been strong on intermediate tracks this season, and he has shown the ability to rise to the occasion in playoff races. With a win at Kansas Speedway already under his belt, Elliott will be looking to repeat that success on Sunday.
Other drivers to watch include Martin Truex Jr., Kevin Harvick, and Brad Keselowski. Truex has had success at Kansas Speedway in the past and is coming off a strong finish last weekend. Harvick has been a consistent performer on intermediate tracks this season and is always a threat to win. Keselowski, who is in his final season with Team Penske, will be looking to end his tenure with the team on a high note with a win at Kansas Speedway.
As the race weekend approaches, fans and bettors alike are eagerly anticipating the Hollywood Casino 400. With so many talented drivers vying for the win, Sunday’s race is sure to be a thrilling and unpredictable event. Whether it’s Larson, Hamlin, Elliott, or another driver who emerges victorious, one thing is for certain – the Hollywood Casino 400 will be a race to remember.
