Last week at Phoenix we saw option tires play a key into who was good at any one time, but in the end on equal tires it was Christopher Bell who came home the victor for the 3rd race in a row! Next up we head to Las Vegas where options will be the name of the game again, but it will be which lane to run, not which tires. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Las Vegas Motor Speedway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position in the Next Gen era. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
