By David Morgan, Associate Editor NEWTON, Iowa – It’s Josef Newgarden’s world, we’re just living in it. The driver of the No. 2 Team Penske Chevrolet has been the dominant force at Iowa Speedway for a number of years now and once again, the four-time winner at the 0.894-mile oval was at the top of the board when the checkered flag flew on Friday’s lone NTT IndyCar Series practice session for the Hy-Vee INDYCAR Weekend. Heading into the weekend, it’s been the consensus of the IndyCar paddock that Newgarden would onceRead More

By Holly Cain, NASCAR Wire Service Hendrick Motorsports driver Chase Elliott smiled and bristled a bit when asked if he returns to Pocono (Pa.) Raceway this week feeling like the reigning track champion after being declared last year’s Pocono race winner after the drivers who finished ahead of him on track – apparent winner Denny Hamlin and runner-up Kyle Busch – were disqualified following post-race inspection. “He actually gave me the trophy, but he kept the flag – his little girl was kind of married to the flag and itRead More

By David Morgan, Associate Editor NEWTON, Iowa – You can’t say Conor Daly is lacking confidence heading into this weekend’s NTT IndyCar Series doubleheader at Iowa Speedway. Filling in for sidelined driver Simon Pagenaud in the Meyer-Shank Racing No. 60 Honda at the 0.894-mile oval, Daly is focused on getting the most out of the weekend in what could be a banner run for both him and the team. After finding himself on the outs with Ed Carpenter Racing just seven races into the 2023 season, Daly was thrust in theRead More

By David Morgan, Associate Editor Six to go. The countdown to the end of the regular season for the NASCAR Cup Series continues as the Tricky Triangle comes calling for Sunday’s running of the HighPoint.com 400 at Pocono Raceway. With only three turns, instead of the four turns at all other ovals on the circuit, Pocono is definitely one of the most unique tracks on the schedule. The three turns all have differing banking with Turn 1 and its 14-degree banking modeled after the now-defunct Trenton Speedway, Turn 2 and itsRead More

By Luis Torres, Staff Writer Racing and all-around entertainment are the focal points this weekend at Iowa Speedway, but the race is the show as INDYCAR makes its annual stop at the 0.894-mile oval for two demanding races. Conditions will be scarce and unlike last year, both Iowa races are the same length at 250 laps apiece. Additionally, only one main practice session on Friday before setting the lineup for both races the next day. From there, all eyes are on the race where some teams are searching for speed andRead More

By Holly Cain, NASCAR Wire Service LOUDON, N.H. – Martin Truex Jr. had led more than 900 laps at New Hampshire Motor Speedway without claiming any victory hardware in 29 previous starts at the 1.058-mile oval. However, the driver of the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota left absolutely no doubt about securing that career first win in Monday’s rain-delayed Crayon 301 at the track, leading a dominating 254 of the 301 laps. The impressive work was the 2017 NASCAR Cup Series champion’s third victory of the season – andRead More

By David Morgan, Associate Editor Even a mid-pack starting position and a broken front wing couldn’t keep Alex Palou down Sunday in Toronto as he brought home a second-place finish. The current NTT IndyCar Series points leader started the 85-lap Honda Indy Toronto in 15th place after a stumble in the rain in qualifying a day ago, but as the race played out, he was back to his old tricks. It seemed as if the driver of the No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda was bound for another finish near theRead More
