Talk about polar opposites. After back-to-back superspeedway weekends, NASCAR is going road course racing this weekend. All three series are in action again as each takes on the rights and lefts of a road course. For the Cup and O’Reilly Series, they head to the Lonestar State to tackle Circuit of the Americas. Meanwhile, the Craftsman Truck Series will be hitting the streets in St Petersburg for the series first street circuit. Outside of the Cup Series, there are plenty of road course ringers spread amongst the entry lists. Will any of them feature in this week’s predictions? Who did the Pit Pass Network crew pick this week for the 2026 Predictions for COTA and St Petersburg?
Last week, Cash continued to build upon his lead while Jane follows close behind. Will this week see a new person at the top? Check out the full standings in the table below:
