Martin Truex Jr. topped the chart in final Sprint Cup Series practice at Pocono Raceway. The driver of the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota was the fastest in the final practice session with a time of 51.027 and a speed of 176.377 mph.
Aric Almirola says he's in favor of a mechanism that forces cars to run no faster than pit road speed on pit road. During his media availability at Pocono Raceway earlier today, the driver of the No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports Ford elaborated on how he'd like to see NASCAR implement a device on cars that forces the cars to run just pit road speed on pit road.
Jeff Gordon says he "will be here as long as they need me" for Dale Earnhardt Jr. Speaking in his weekly media availability at Pocono Raceway, the substitute driver of the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet was asked how long he's prepared to fill in for Earnhardt and if there's a plan in place for next week at Watkins Glen International.
Martin Truex Jr. will lead the field to the green flag on Sunday at Pocono Raceway. The driver of the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota scored the pole for the Pennsylvania 400 after posting a time of 50.211 and a speed of 179.244 mph.
Winning the pole and spanking the field in the previous day's XFINITY race wasn't enough for Kyle Busch as he won the pole and spanked the field a second time to score the victory at the Brickyard.
