Catching Up on Bristol
Okay, so the day kinda got away from me, but I really wanted to check out the Bristol race results. Didn’t get to watch it live, you know how it goes sometimes. Finally got a minute, grabbed my phone to see who came out on top.
Fired up my usual sports app, scrolled through the headlines. Bam! Saw the news right away.
Who won?
Turns out Kyle Larson took the checkered flag. No huge surprise there, maybe? Seems like he’s always up front, especially lately. Saw he was the favorite going in, something like +270 odds, which is pretty low.
Digging into the Details
So, Larson won. But I wanted to see how it went down. Found some more info:
- Man, this guy just dominated. I read he led a crazy number of laps, like over 400 out of 500! That’s just controlling the race from start to finish.
- This win makes it two for him this season already. He’s really on a roll.
- And apparently, Bristol is his playground now. Saw something about him leading most of the laps there in the last couple of Cup races combined. Wild stuff.
- He even won the Xfinity race the day before and almost won the Truck race too, finished second in that one. Guy was busy!
The whole race seemed pretty quick too. Read it was wrapped up in about two hours and forty minutes. For 500 laps at Bristol, that feels like they were really moving, not a lot of slowdowns I guess.
Anyway, just wanted to jot down what I found. Always interesting to see how those short track races shake out. Larson really put on a clinic this time around. Good for him, definitely earned it leading that many laps.
