Ryan Blaney loves Talladega !

Telladega stats since 2019 of active drivers:
- Blaney is second only to Logana with most laps lead at Talladega, and Chase Elliott coming in 3rd spot for most laps lead.
- Blaney has 5 top 20s in 6 starts at Dega.
- With 2 wins in them 6 starts.


Over all Telladega history has Brad Keselowski with most wins @ 8 of them !



Go Go Blaney !!

Ross Chastain wins, mad scramble at the end.

Austin Dillon, and Kyle Busch follow.

 

[dara]

Eric Jones was leading into the White Flag, with Larson right behind, then Chastain pushed both hard, making Larson pass Jones, but somehow Larson screwed up blocking and into the wall, and Chastain propelled forward.
