NASCAR Pocono takeaways: Chase Briscoe’s big relief, Kyle Larson’s struggles and more

Chase Briscoe is still adjusting to his new life as someone who should win races, not a driver who shocks everyone when he does.

Chase Briscoe is still adjusting to his new life as someone who should win races, not a driver who shocks everyone when he does.

That’s a strange place to be for a driver whose entire career has been one of those against-all-odds, Hollywood stories (if you’re not familiar with it, it’s quite eye-opening).

Things are much different for Briscoe now. Driving for one of NASCAR’s powerhouse teams in Joe Gibbs Racing, Briscoe is expected to win, and it would have been a huge disappointment if he didn’t. In fact, his entire career might be built on a false premise if he was unable to find victory lane in his situation.

That’s why he quickly expressed relief on Sunday night at Pocono Raceway, after he somehow conserved enough fuel to hold off the track’s all-time wins leader in teammate Denny Hamlin.

“I’ve only won three races in the Cup Series. This is by far the least enjoyable because it’s expected now,” he said. “You have to go win.”

There’s no sugarcoating that. At JGR, it’s win or find someplace else to work. And if you’ve shown you can’t win in the best equipment? Good luck getting someone else to take a chance on you.

That’s the stark reality Briscoe signed up for: Fast cars, but major expectations. And he could feel the pressure creeping in as he sat winless near the halfway point of the season.

“The last couple weeks especially, (it’s) like this huge weight on my shoulders, unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before,” he said. “My wife (said), ‘What is going on with you?’ I’m like, ‘I have to win. I don’t think you realize how bad it is if we don’t win a race and lock into the playoffs.’”

Briscoe said when he was signing his contract with JGR, he was shown a statistic: Out of 40 possible playoff berths to that point in the elimination playoff era, the team had made it 38 times. The expectation, he said, was clear: “If you don’t make the playoffs, you’re not going to be in this car anymore.”

There are times when we wonder why NASCAR drivers don’t seem to be having fun. Hey, that was some cool racing for sixth place out there! Why don’t they get out of the car and smile?

It’s because for those at the top of the sport — anyone who drives for JGR, Hendrick Motorsports or Team Penske — winning is about the only thing worth smiling about.

Briscoe, the career underdog who made it big, now knows that all too well.

“There were a lot of people they could have put in this car,” he said. “It was the most sought-after seat in the offseason. For me to be the one blessed enough, lucky enough to get it is great.

“With that, you have to prove yourself. To be able to come here and win, it doesn’t mean I’m guaranteed to be in it for awhile — but it certainly is nice to know I can do it at this level, in this equipment. Hopefully, I can be here my entire career because the sky definitely feels like it’s the limit here.”

Pit call pitfall

You can understand why Brad Keselowski wanted to stay out for one more lap.

With nothing but clean track in front of him and suddenly freed from the scourge of Pocono’s dirty air problem, Keselowski was ripping around the 2.5-mile track and making up ground on those drivers who were in the middle of a pit cycle.

Or so he thought. But his team, with all their data and lap times on the pit box, radioed to tell him that wasn’t the case. He was actually losing time to the cars who had come off pit road with fresher tires and needed to pit now instead of running longer.

Keselowski had committed to running long in his mind and asked if he could do one more lap. The team said yes. So he did. Except right then is when Shane van Gisbergen spun out and caused a caution, which ruined Keselowski’s pit strategy altogether.

Instead of starting that final run somewhere in the top five and having a chance to win the race, Keselowski had to restart 24th and spent the rest of the race driving back up to ninth.

At this point, for a driver in 30th place in the standings, wins are the only thing that matters. You can’t blame Keselowski for trying to do what he thought was right; he’s a veteran with nearly 600 Cup starts, a highly intelligent team owner who has a firm grasp on strategy, and a person who has spent a lifetime in racing. If there’s no caution, his decision doesn’t look bad.

Still, the driver has limited resources inside the car. Whatever he’s seeing for lap times and however information is being relayed in his ear, it’s no match for the computers on the pit box and the engineers in the war rooms back at the race shops who are helping call the race in real time.

The best drivers and teams in the Next Gen Era are the ones who let the driver drive and the crew chief be the crew chief. Cliff Daniels doesn’t ask Kyle Larson what to do; he tells him, and Larson says “OK” and does it. Denny Hamlin doesn’t question Chris Gayle (or Chris Gabehart before that); Hamlin puts the strategy in the team’s hands.

We’ve yet to see a case lately where a driver overruling the team has worked out. But we have seen multiple high-profile cases where the driver got it wrong (Justin Allgaier at Charlotte, for example). Keselowski, unfortunately with bad timing as a factor, now becomes the latest example.

What happened to the No. 5 team?

Wait a second. Is Larson suddenly not as fast anymore?

Larson is tops in laps led this season and was setting a blazing pace in that category, making it seem inevitable he could reach 2,000 laps led in a season again (like he did in 2021). Except suddenly, Larson and the No. 5 team have just been … OK?

In the last four races — Nashville, Michigan, Mexico City, Pocono — Larson has led zero laps. Not one! It had been almost a year since Larson went even three straight races without leading a lap.

Surely, people will point to the disastrous Indy 500/Coca-Cola 600 weekend as some sort of turning point. But this is about the speed of the cars, not the driver; remember, Larson shot to the lead at Charlotte and led 34 laps before crashing.

Something isn’t quite firing on all cylinders with the No. 5 team right now, and Larson has made several puzzled comments about it recently (like at Michigan, when he said he wouldn’t have finished any further regardless of the fuel mileage game).

“I just hope we don’t carry what we had the last few weeks into the rest of the season,” Larson said after Pocono. “Prior to the last few weeks, we’ve been really fast. It’s just been a rough stretch, but we’ll continue to go to work.”

New life for Legacy

Legacy Motor Club seems to have come to life in the last two months after a disappointing couple seasons. The question is: Can the team keep building on the momentum, or is this a temporary spike?

John Hunter Nemechek has back-to-back sixth-place finishes at two wildly different track types (Mexico City and Pocono) and has risen from 25th to 21st in points in the last two weeks. He has a career-high six top-10s this season, all in spaced-out, consecutive pairings — but after each one has hit a slump.

Teammate Erik Jones is 18th in the standings with only two top-10s all year, but that’s because Jones has been more consistent and has avoided bad finishes. Pocono was his fifth straight finish of 17th or better and Jones has rocketed 11 spots in the standings during that stretch alone (he was 29th after last month’s Kansas race).

Jones is well-established, and his talent is well-known in the garage. Sitting 18th in the point standings with nine races remaining until the playoffs isn’t a major shock based on his past, but it is surprising given how Legacy ran the past two seasons (when Jones finished 27th and 28th in the standings, respectively).

Nemechek is more of an eyebrow-raiser. He had a solid start to the season (he was inside the playoff standings for the first five races) and then faded, but has now been able to re-establish his footing. The 28-year-old is tied with Michael McDowell in the standings and the two of them are just one point behind the much-discussed Carson Hocevar and eight points behind future Hall of Famer Kyle Busch.

There’s a tangled jumble of eight drivers within 25 points of one another in the standings — from 17th place to 24th place — so it’s a trap to get too caught up with points position now. But just to be in the mix at this point, considering the expectations for Legacy after the last two years, is worth noting.

NEWTON, Iowa (AP) — IndyCar driver Nolan Siegel was not cleared to race Sunday at Iowa Speedway because of a mild concussion suffered in a crash one day earlier.

The 20-year-old Arrow McLaren driver crashed in the first race of Iowa’s two-day IndyCar doubleheader. Arrow McLaren teammate Pato O’Ward won Saturday’s race for his first win of the season, as well as the first for McLaren this year and first for Chevrolet.

McLaren chose not to run the No. 6 Chevrolet that Siegel qualified fifth for Sunday. The team said Siegel will continue to be evaluated ahead of next weekend’s race in Toronto.

“There’s no place I’d rather be than out there driving today, especially from one of my best starting positions of the season,” Siegel said. “I know I’m in good hands with the IndyCar medical team and thank them for the great care they provide us drivers.”

SVG, who has won two of the three races on road courses, like Sonoma, this season, sits at +105 NASCAR odds at DraftKings heading into today’s race.

He is followed by Kyle Larson (+700), Chase Elliott (+850), Tyler Reddick (+1200), Michael McDowell (+1200) and AJ Allmendinger (+1200).

When it comes to my favorite NASCAR pick for Sonoma, I’m bypassing the outright market and am instead zeroing in on one matchup that’s a headscratcher in my mind.

NASCAR Odds, Best Bet Pick for Sonoma

*Odds as of Sunday morning

Sonoma has been good to Daniel Suárez in the Next Gen car.

Over the past three races at this circuit, Suárez has posted the eighth-best driver rating, the ninth-best average running position and a win back in 2022.

On the other hand, Denny Hamlin has had all kinds of problems at Sonoma in the Next Gen, finishing 31st in 2022, crashing out in 2023 and blowing an engine on Lap 2 last season.

But what really makes me bullish on Suárez in this matchup today is how they both paced in practice on Saturday.

Despite running in the much slower Group 1, Suárez was actually faster than Hamlin in five-lap average speed and only one spot behind the No. 11 Toyota in 10-lap average.

Further, Suárez qualified only three places behind Hamlin, so I can understand why this matchup looks closer on paper than it truly is, based on both drivers’ track histories and the fact that we need to adjust for when they both hit the track in practice.

In my mind, Suàrez should be the favorite here, but DraftKings has him priced at -105 against Hamlin — a price I’m investing in for Sunday’s Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma.

NASCAR Pick: Daniel Suárez (-105) over Denny Hamlin — DraftKings

With 88 wins, 1045 top 10s, and over 14,000 laps led, Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s JR Motorsports is undoubtedly one of the top teams in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. But how did an organization that began in 2002 as a modest three-car street stock operation evolve into one of the sport’s most dominant forces?

Hear it straight from the man himself. Following the ecstatic Sonoma weekend, the two-time Daytona winner opened up about the team’s journey, revealing how deep-rooted connections and autonomy have fueled their latest NXS surge.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Uncovers JR Motorsports’ Winning Formula

JRM has come a long way, rising from being a humble stock car racing team initially formed to compete locally at Concord Motor Speedway. Fielding champions like Chase Elliott, William Byron, Tyler Reddick, and Justin Allgaier, the team won four championships, the latest being Allgaier’s 2024 title run.

Earnhardt credited the JRM crew, reflecting on Connor Zilisch and Shane van Gisbergen’s fairytale one-two finish at Sonoma. “Just incredible,” he said. “Bummy, LW, the whole entire organization. All our crew chiefs, tons of resources from Hendrick Motorsports, Chad Knaus, Jeff Gordon.”

The veteran highlighted his team’s crucial alliances, particularly their connection with Trackhouse Racing. He noted, “Lot of support on the pit crew side from different areas. Justin Marks and Trackhouse. I mean, there’s a lot of allies that we have that are part of our performance and help us run well. We do a lot of things in-house, but we also rely on a ton of help from outside that really does directly affect our performance.”

“So, we’ve really just kind of got everything in the right place, and it’s hard to do, and we might not be there for forever,” Earnhardt said, revealing the secret sauce to his team’s recent upswing. He continued, “Right now, we’re taking advantage of being on top or being one of the better teams, and hopefully we can sustain that all the way through the playoffs. And you know, win the championship. Be good when it matters.”

Saturday’s Xfinity feature saw all five of the JRM cars rolling off from inside the top 10 and came home with a stellar P1 (Zilisch), P2 (SVG), P6 (Justin Allgaier), P8 (Carson Kvapill), P9 (Sammy Smith).

Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Co. Lock in Major Multi-Year Sponsorship Deal for 2026 and Beyond

Connor Zilisch’s  No. 88 car rolls into Sonoma Raceway with one of the sharpest paint schemes NASCAR fans will see all weekend. The red, white, and blue colors look great, but there’s a bigger story here. The sponsor backing the car just made a major commitment to Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s operation, and it shows how much faith they have in what JR Motorsports (JRM) is building.

Roto-Rooter sponsors Zilisch and Carson Kvapil for two races each in the 2025 Xfinity Series season. They’re also part of JR Motorsports’ Late Model program. But for 2026, they’ve bumped up their commitment to seven races.

Why Did Roto-Rooter Triple Their JR Motorsports Sponsorship for 2026?

That jump from four races to seven tells you everything about how JRM has been performing. Justin Allgaier won the Xfinity championship in 2024. He’s leading the points standings right now with three wins already under his belt. Meanwhile, Zilisch has grabbed two wins, Sammy Smith has one, and Kvapil has been rock-solid consistent all season.

With results like that, it was only a matter of time before Roto-Rooter extended its partnership with the team.

Allgaier will run some of those seven races, but JRM hasn’t announced which other drivers will get Roto-Rooter backing. Naturally, Earnhardt was pumped about the news.

What Did Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Roto-Rooter Say About the Deal?

In a recent press release from JRM, co-owner Earnhardt said, “We are excited to continue growing our relationship with Roto-Rooter. I feel like JR Motorsports offers an amazing marketing platform across the board, and it’s great when partners see the value that our companies provide. I’m looking forward to seeing how we can continue to deliver for Roto-Rooter on and off the track.”

The feeling is mutual. Roto-Rooter President Thad Reinhard didn’t hold back his enthusiasm about the expanded partnership. “We couldn’t be more excited to continue our relationship with Dale, Kelley, and everyone at JR Motorsports,” Reinhard said.

The company has a broader vision regarding this partner, which Reinhard feels will transcend into a wider idea because of the shared values. He said, “Partnering with JR Motorsports means more than just sponsorship, it’s about being part of a true team. We share the same values: reliability, hard work, and a drive to succeed, both on and off the track. We’re especially thrilled to be working more closely with Dale on a personal level and to follow his journey in the Late Model series. I’m looking forward to watching our relationship continue to grow.”

The 2026 season is still months away, but fans can start wondering what paint schemes Roto-Rooter will bring to those seven races with JRM.

Paul Menard Earns First Watkins Glen Win, Fourth Victory of 2025 in Trans Am’s 50th Race at The Glen

James Beaton Best in XGT, Josh Carlson Wins Once Again in SGT

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (July 13, 2025) – 22 years after making his first-career start at Watkins Glen International in the NASCAR Cup Series, Paul Menard finally took checkered flag at the historic racetrack in the Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli’s 50th race at The Glen. After rolling off third in his No. 3 Pittsburgh Paints/Menards Ford Mustang, the 2024 champion made the pass for the lead on lap 17 and was engaged in a cat-and-mouse game with Adam Andretti (No. 17 Top Liner Chevrolet Camaro) until the checkered flag waved.

When the green flag waved, polesitter Chris Dyson (No. 16 GYM WEED Ford Mustang) was immediately passed on the outside by second-place Andretti, who shot out to a massive 10-carlength lead. Andretti nurtured his multi-second advantage for the first nine laps while Menard fought with Dyson for the second position. On lap 10, Menard made the pass on Dyson and slowly began to hunt down Andretti. Andretti’s gap began to shrink, and on lap 17, Andretti made a mistake on the exit of the boot, allowing Menard to get by. For the remaining 13 laps, Andretti was on Menard’s bumper, attempting to regain the point position, but when the race reached its conclusion, it was Menard who drove into GYM WEED Winners Circle, followed by Andretti and Dyson. Tomy Drissi (No. 8 Trench Shoring Co./Motul Chevrolet Camaro) finished fourth, and Amy Ruman (No. 7 McNichols Co./Valley Automotive Group Chevrolet Camaro) finished fifth in a car borrowed from Drissi Motorsports following a crash in testing which heavily damaged her Corvette.

Notes of Interest:

  • Paul Menard earned his 11th-career Trans Am victory in the series’ 50th start at Watkins Glen International. The victory was Menard’s fourth of the season.

  • The 2024 champion won for the first time at Watkins Glen International. He has been competing at the track since 2003 in NASCAR’s top-three series.

  • Menard has made 28 previous starts at Watkins Glen in the NASCAR Cup, Xfinity and Truck Series and one in the Trans Am Series. Before today, his best finish was second in both Trans Am and Xfinity.

  • Menard leaves the track with the points lead and a 31-point advantage over Adam Andretti.

  • Adam Andretti scored his sixth podium in eight races this season. He is tied with Menard for the most podium finishes in 2025.

“It’s great to be back in the Trans Am Series at Watkins Glen, one of my favorite racetracks,” said Menard. “It’s just a badass racetrack, and I told Adam [Andretti], we just did 100 miles of qualifying. We were on it every single lap. The car held up; I got a little loose at the end. We had a tough weekend; we battled a lot of different gremlins and my boys put it all together for the race. The car was just solid all race. On to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. I love that track up there; another badass, high-speed track. Adam is keeping us honest in the points and we’ll keep at it.”

TA Top Five:
1. Paul Menard, No. 3 Pittsburgh Paints/Menards Ford Mustang 
2. Adam Andretti, No. 17 Top Liner Chevrolet Camaro
3. Chris Dyson, No. 16 GYM WEED Ford Mustang
4. Tomy Drissi, No. 8 Trench Shoring Co./Motul Chevrolet Camaro
5. Amy Ruman, No. 23 McNichols Co./Valley Automotive Group Chevrolet Corvette

EMCO Gears Lap Leader:
Adam Andretti, No. 17 Top Liner Chevrolet Camaro

XGT:
The lone competitor in XGT, James Beaton in the No. 82 Playtime Hot Rods & Motorsports Chevrolet Corvette was the top finisher in the class. Unfortunately, an engine failure on lap 10 led to his early retirement from the race.

XGT Results:
1. James Beaton, No. 82 Playtime Hot Rods & Motorsports Chevrolet Corvette

SGT:
For the seventh time this season, Joshua Carlson in the No. 36 Enseva/Diercks Ltd./TC Fab Ford Mustang dominated the SGT class. He was the fastest competitor in practice, qualifying and the race, and he led every lap. Ray Mason (No. 00 Alloy Employer Services Ford Mustang) showed quick pace, crossing the finish line second, and 2022 champion Milton Grant (No. 55 Sentry Self Storage/Springhill Suites Porsche 991.1) finished third.

“I’m feeling pretty good,” said Carlson on the podium. “We led the whole weekend in practice, qualifying, and the race. I’d like to thank Enseva. Without them, I wouldn’t be racing this weekend. I had a lot of fun racing with Milton [Grant] and Ray [Mason]. I hope to see them out at the next race.”

SGT Results:
1. Joshua Carlson, No. 36 Enseva/Diercks Ltd./TC Fab Ford Mustang
2. Ray Mason, No. 00 Alloy Employer Services Ford Mustang
3. Milton Grant, No. 55 Sentry Self Storage/Springhill Suites Porsche 991.1 Mustang

Final Details:
Official race results can be found here.

An encore presentation of today’s race will air tonight on SPEED SPORT 1 at 7:00 p.m. ET.

The Trans Am Series takes a brief hiatus before returning to action at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, August 28-31. Tickets can be purchased here.
