Last week at Gateway we got to see some good first half racing, then a bit of snoozer second half that ended in another win for Denny Hamlin in 2025. Next up we go to a place that Denny Hamlin has won at 4 times in his Cup career, Bristol. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Bristol 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!
In this post you will only find active and Next Gen stats, if you are looking for all-time stats check out my previous article All-Time Cup Track Stats: Bristol.
Active means any driver who started a race in the 2025 Cup Series season.

– There are 24 active drivers who have made 10+ starts here at Bristol and only J.J. Yeley, Corey LaJoie, and Ty Dillon have yet to get a Top 10 here. However, only Ty Dillon is racing this weekend and thus has a chance to remove his name from that list.

– Half of the drivers in the “without Stage T10” table above aren’t even in the race this weekend and therefore don’t have a chance to get off this list.

– There are a lot of impressive Bristol streaks coming into this weekend as Kyle Larson tries to become the first driver since the early 2000’s to win 3 straight races, and Alex Bowman looks to become the first driver since the late 1990’s to win 3 straight Poles, among other impressive streaks.
