Kyle Busch Should Be A Favorite At Martinsville
4 years agoJoe Gibbs Racing's Kyle Busch finished 14th the last time NASCAR's Cup Series came to Martinsville Speedway, a result that broke a string of eight consecutive top-five finishes at the track for the former series champion. With his track history in mind, Busch should be considered one of the favorites to win Wednesday night's Blue Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500. He'll start near the front, rolling off the grid in seventh position, and should be a fixture in the top five for most of the race. Despite six top fives so far in 2020, Busch has yet to break through and visit victory lane, but don't be surprised to see that change by the time the checkered flag flies at Martinsville.
