Last weekend Sunoco Rookies won all three NASCAR national series races for the first time in history – Buescher (NASCAR Sprint Cup Series), 23, Erik Jones (NASCAR XFINITY Series), 20, and William Byron (NASCAR Camping World Truck Series), 18.

Along with still trying to get into a groove while driving Dale Earnhardt’s No. 88 for the third straight week after being retired since November, he has some awful Watkins Glen stats since winning his fourth and final race there in 2001.
Thanks to multi-tasking NASCAR fans at work, Monday afternoon’s Sprint Cup race from Pocono Raceway delivered NBC Sports’ best race ever in terms of live streaming. “I’m super nervous coming back”. Get to hang out with my guys a little bit.
“Just again continue to build on the success we’ve grown into as a group”. The driver of the #88 vehicle said he wanted to visit his team and be back around familiar faces. “Basically they’re depending on being able to push the back bumper to get you mowing”. We’re just taking it one evaluation at a time. “He should have seen me and just checked up”. Nothing else is a priority. I didnt think this was that serious. The process isn’t as fast as you would like it to be.
“But I’m not going to go in the auto until the doctors say I’m ready to race”. But we’ve got some great doctors, and I really believe and trust what they are telling me. The event that I had at MI I shouldnt have had a concussion from. While he is in daily conversation with his doctors, his concussion symptoms are only evaluated every two to four weeks. But if the last decade has taught us anything, it’s that concussions are the one injury that can have the greatest impact later in life when ignored. It’s a slower process, I wish it wasn’t. You get the idea. I’m not thinking about the what-ifs. Got back into the auto.
“I missed my team, my teammates”, Earnhardt said. My doctor calls that exposure, and this is probably the worst situation as far as making my systems go haywire.
“And so, I’ve been going and eating and having lunch with my family”. It will fix itself when it decides to. I tried the last time. “That is why it is frustrating”.
However, he does plan to return to competition as soon as he is cleared by doctors. That puts us in a really small bubble.
“I was happy with the lap”, Stewart said. “I sat with (team owner) Rick (Hendrick) before this happened a couple of months ago to talk about an extension”. That is the direction that we are going. “He wants me to do anything that pushes me into areas to get my anxiety and drive the symptoms so my body gets used to them”. I want to race. I miss being here.
“It’s my fault whenever I run into the back of someone, ” Keselowski said. Im not ready to quit.. “I just have to do what they tell me”. Even if a driver does dominate the race, their final score is going to be much less than it would be in a race with 200-plus laps.
