The 2020 NASCAR Cup Season (plus Xfinity, Trucks, ARCA talk)

Cup highlights

An excellent strategy call nets Logano the win. And a late caution-and-restart allows for the order to get shaken up some.

Auto Club Speedway, Fontana CA this weekend. About my least favourite track on the calendar. Just Cup and Xfinity here, trucks aren't back for a fortnight.

Alex Bowman swept the Cup practice sessions. Bodes well for his race weekend.

Didn't watch one minute of action from Fontana. But I've been keeping up with Phoenix this weekend - so far we've had a punch-up between McDowell and Suarez, Ryan Newman showed up but isn't back driving yet, and Chase Elliott is on pole for the Cup race. Thing is, Elliott qualifies well at Phoenix often but never finishes particularly well on raceday. My money is on Kevin Harvick for the win.
