There is no course in NASCAR like Dover International Speedway. The one-mile concrete track in Delaware has high banks and several grooves similar to Bristol’s half-mile design but with high-banked straightaways.
If Jimmie Johnson wins Sunday, then he will combine Hall of Famers Richard Petty and Darrell Waltrip since the only three Cup Series drivers to acquire 11 or more races in one track. He also asserts the series-best driver evaluation (118.3) and average running position (7.8) in the Monster Mile.
Kyle Busch, our pick to win, can be on the point of history. He wants to lead 59 laps to become the 11th Cup Series driver to direct 13,000 or more laps in his profession. Busch directed 102 laps in a runner-up showing at Dover last fall and is starting to heat up by finishing second (Charlotte), fifth (Kansas) and third (Talladega) in his last 3 races with at least 48 laps in each race.
Martin Truex Jr. leads the Cup Series in average running position (7.3), driver evaluation (113.3), fastest laps run (403) and laps led (769). He also won at Dover past fall.
