The Xfinity Series and Cup Series will compete at the Charlotte Roval this week. The race will be the last in the Round of 12 for the Cup Series in both series. Chase Elliott clinched his spot in the Round of 8 with his win at Talladega. Noah Gragson advanced to the Round of 8 in the Xfinity Series playoffs with his win at Texas and AJ Allmendinger also clinched with his win at Talladega. It should be fun to see which drivers can make it to the Round of 8 in both series this weekend.
DRIVER RANKINGS FOR CHARLOTTE ROVAL
There have been five races this year on the road course (COTA, Sonoma, Road America, Indy Road Course and Watkins Glen). I used a lot of the data from these five races for the driver rankings this week. The Gen-7 car has not evened out the playing field as much on the road courses as it has on the oval tracks. The drivers who have run well on the road courses in the past are finishing up front again in 2022. I also looked at the driver’s history at the Charlotte Roval and their stats on road courses over the last two seasons (2021 and 2022).
