Winning the Pole at Martinsville this weekend isn’t good if you want to win the race as it’s only happened 20 times out of 138 times that a driver has won the Pole.

Winning Stage 1 and 2 in the same race has been pretty popular at Martinsville, happening in just under half the races run here since stages were invented. However, only in 2019 did that turn into a race win.

In May of 1953 Herb Thomas was credited as leading the final 127 laps and winning the race until officials rechecked the scoring and found Lee Petty won. This is how Lee Petty became the only driver to win at Martinsville without leading a single lap.

A driver leading 89% or more of the laps in a race at Martinsville has never lost a race. So, if a driver leads 445 laps or more this weekend it’s pretty much a guaranteed win.
