Alex Bowman

Nationwide announced Wednesday that they will end their sponsorship with the Hendrick Motorsports No. 88 team with driver Alex Bowman at the end of the 2019 season.

Joey Logano started on the pole and survived an overtime restart to win at Michigan, giving Penske Racing its fifth win of the season.

Kyle Busch started second at Pocono and led 79 laps on his way to the win in the Pocono 400. It was Busch's fourth win of the season.

With the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series regular season halfway through, the drivers who are making an impact on the way to the Playoffs have either emerged or are about to. With Chevy drivers finally starting to hit their strides such as Kurt Busch, Chase Elliott and Alex Bowman, it's a safe bet to go with the Bowtie Brigade heading into Sunday.

Despite contact with the wall in Stage 1, Martin Truex Jr. recovered and sealed the win at Charlotte with a daring four-wide pass for the lead on the final restart.

Kyle Busch was in contention for the in on Saturday night at Kansas before a flat right-rear tire ruined his night. He finished 30th, three laps down.

A mistake by Alex Bowman on the final lap of the second stage let Martin Truex Jr. pounce on and pass him to win the stage. After that, the Gander RV 400 was his race to lose.

For the third time this season, NASCAR presented a race worth watching. I am talking about those who demand an entertaining three-hour experience if they are going to spend the time to take it all in. Talladega delivered.

With four different crashes in the final seven laps, Chase Elliott emerged victorious in the Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway in the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup Series.

Another season has come and gone, along with a few more drivers and fans, to be honest. However, there are some things I have noticed that are on the positive side, though not all would agree.
