Multi-platinum MCA Nashville recording artist Josh Turner will entertain fans at Daytona International Speedway on Saturday, July 7, with a pre-race concert prior to the 60th annual Coke Zero Sugar 400, a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series event.

Chevrolet established a winning tradition at Pocono Raceway in 1977 when Benny Parsons took the brand to Winner’s Circle for the first time at the ‘Tricky Triangle’. Since then, Chevrolet has gone on to record 31 more victories for a total of 32, making the Bowtie Brand the most successful manufacturer at the 2.5-mile venue.

Spencer Boyd and SS Greenlight Racing are proud to announce a multiple race partnership with Hunt'n Buddy starting at the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Pocono Raceway on June 2, 2108. Hunt'n Buddy is a mobile phone app launched in July of 2017 by former NYPD officer, Joe Rogan.

Elliott Quote “I think it will be much different than what we saw at the All-Star race. We ran it last year at Indy so I think it will be more similar to what we saw there. With the long straightaways, I think you will have to have things sorted out before you get to the corners because the groove is kind of narrow at Pocono. It will be interesting. I am waiting to see, but I think it will be fun and something different for sure.”

Martin Truex Jr.’s performance has been mostly steady and stable with 50 percent of the regular season completed (13 of 26 races).

Chase Elliott on if a Turn 4 would make Pocono easier to navigate: “No, I like Pocono. I enjoy Pocono. It’s been another fun place and unique with the shifting and things that we do there that we don’t do at other places. I like that challenge, it’s something that we don’t do and obviously road courses we do, but it’s just different. I enjoy racing there.”

This weekend marks the third visit to Pocono Raceway for the NASCAR Xfinity Series. In 2016, Reed qualified 23rd and finished 33rd after his right-rear tire went down while he was running in to the top 10.

Ford driver Ryan Blaney is the defending winner of this weekend’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race at Pocono. He’s one of four current Ford drivers with at least one series win on the three-turn track (Brad Keselowski, Joey Logano and Kurt Busch). Here’s a look at some Ford highlights through the years.

Stenhouse has 10 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series (MENCS) starts at Pocono Raceway with an average starting position of 21.8 and average finishing position of 23.6. In his first career start at the ‘Tricky Triangle’, Stenhouse Jr. won the ARCA race in 2008.

Pocono Preview: The Series heads to Pocono Raceway this Sunday for 400 miles around the 2.5-mile “Tricky Triangle”. Hamlin is looking to add a fifth victory at Pocono to his impressive résumé of 10 top-five and 15 top-10 finishes at the Pennsylvania track. He also averages a 7.2 starting position at Pocono which is a Series best among active drivers.
