Hope we get a good race and not a tire-gate.

Worse. Not sure why McD's dug this character out of mothballs. At least it wasn't Grimace (the face I make when asked if I'd like to eat there).

Clear skies but rather hot at 88 degrees for the green flag of this one.

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes Martin Truex Jr. to rally from his 31st starting spot. Also, how long Josh Berry stays in the top 5.
And we're OFF!

It’s great to see this place fully revived and then some, there was a point during COVID where I thought this track was done for.

That’s the earliest a yellow flag has ever flown at a Cup race in Iowa.

Spirecide.

Minus some flashes from Hocevar, that whole incident seems representative of much of Spire’s season so far.

NBC coverage is excellent. Even without Jr.

Absolutely! I have a feeling we’ll also break the record for the most cautions ever in an Iowa cup race.

I disagree. This race will have the fewest yellows of any Iowa Cup race. Bet on it.

They said not to count Hamlin out. I don’t know, he’s really bad! I think you can count him out at this point.

In 30 laps he'll be at least four spots out of the Lucky Dawg.

This caution and new tires may get him to the front of the 'lap down' line.

Maybe but the night is still young and he will probably get lots of ketchup (cautions) to sort it out.

This is great.
Kudos to NBC for letting us see this.
