Schrader was Folger's ride with Hendrick at that time... whoever drove for Junior Johnson and whoever drove for Woods Brothers.

Neil Bonnett. Last one may be Buddy Baker, although not sure on that one.

Xfinity race should be fun one to watch...hate that JJ has COVID-19...sucks for him. But I think we all knew it was going to happen.

NASCAR industry execs are increasingly skeptical that @NYGovCuomo will grant the sport a quarantine waiver for the August @WGI weekend, which would put that race in serious doubt.

If the WGI weekend was canceled, @NASCAR could move the Cup race to a roval in the Southeast.

If the governor up there doesn't want it, bring her down here. I personally love the ROVAL.

I thought the last 10 laps of the Race today was awesome

What's the best guess on who #48 replacement will be?
Brad K ?
Even though he drives for JR Motorsports, I would not be surprised at all to see Justin Allgaier get that ride.


Won't be Justin. Briscoe has to be in the convo with the way he's running. Reddick is in the convo and Toyota is gonna be a seat short at the end of this year. So Bell or Jones are probably gonna be odd man out and need a home.

Well, he got it for part of a race anyway.

I don't see Briscoe since he is a Ford Performance guy.

Ford has definitely put some money into him i agree. But if they don't have a seat for him he's got to go somewhere. Will depend what SHR decides to do with Bowyer.

Agree, Clint is the big question. I think Chase takes over that ride. Jmo

.@NBC earned a 2.67 rating and 4.34 million viewers for yesterday's NASCAR Cup Series @BigMachine Brickyard 400 @IMS.

That's up significantly from a 1.9 rating and 2.97 million for last year's Brickyard 400, though that race aired in September and was up against @NFL games.

Yesterday's race was the most watched sports program on NBC since Vikings-Niners in January.

The race viewership of 4.343 million is up 32% from last year's corresponding calendar weekend, 3.288 million at Daytona, and up 46% from 2.974 million for last year's Brickyard 400.

Good ratings.

I think Hendrick MS is going to have to fill the 48 seat with an established named driver. They went the developmental route with the 88 and 24. I just think they have to bring some firepower to the 48 seat to pair with C. Elliott. If not they will continue to fall further behind JGR from an on track perspective and a marketing perspective.

Agree...they need a veteran.

do you think they might reach out to a recently retired driver?

after yesterday maybe Kenseth?

Won't be Kenseth (CGR reached out to Edwards and Jr for the fill in role before Kenseth so won't be either of them either and i don't know if any other recently retired guys you'd want)...and don't know that i agree the kids they got can't do it. Bowman has won two races and Byron is on the cusp. You also have to remember budgets aren't what they used to be and you get those kids for a tenth of the price of the veterans.

Not saying it won't be a veteran, but just pointing out the differences. As of now however, there is no leader in the clubhouse, and i have that on pretty good authority.

Wouldn't think so, to be honest I have no idea, but could see RH getting a vet.

.@NASCAR's Quarantine Waiver For Watkins Glen Race Appears Unlikely:

Daytona's road course is the most mentioned potential replacement circuit in play.

I know it won't happen but I'd love to see Allmendinger get a ride. I think he could be a force in good equipment.

I worked with AJ and enjoyed my time with him. He's a good dude and has remained that way...not the same can be said for all of them. Would have been interesting to see where his career would have gone without the release from Penske.
