Michael McDowell

The Glendale, Arizona, native is set to achieve a milestone start at Thunder Valley while in his third full-time Cup season with Front Row Motorsports.

What was looking like a sure-fire entry into the All-Star Race at Bristol by Bubba Wallace and his No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports team...

Almirola, Byron, DiBenedetto and Bowyer round out the 20-car field for the 2020 All-Star Race at Thunder Valley.

The Arizona native will lead a field of 21 competitors attempting to qualify for the 2020 All-Star Race at Thunder Valley.

The first Cup Pocono doubleheader featured six competitors earning top-15 results following a late pit strategy.

McDowell has been close multiple times to pulling off the upset victory at either Daytona or Talladega, but always seem to fall short.

With a lap time of 25.480 seconds, Ryan Blaney captured his sixth career pole for Sunday’s TicketGuardian 500 at ISM Raceway in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.

McDowell said of Logano: “I just told him that my team doesn’t pay me to push Joey Logano to a win. That’s not what I get paid to do.

Following Sunday's Daytona 500, Joey Logano and Michael McDowell had a brief exchange on pit road where Logano explained that he believed that had the two linked up, Ford driver to fellow Ford driver, they could have contended for the win instead of Logano finishing fourth and McDowell finishing fifth.

Talladega was sweet. That was the kind of action that captured my attention as a kid, watching Wide World of Sports. As Jim McKay so iconically put it all those years ago, “Spanning the globe to bring you the constant variety of sport... the thrill of victory... and the agony of defeat... the human drama of athletic competition.” That was Sunday at Talladega.
