Aric Almirola's career has come full circle at Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) with the driver of the No. 10 Smithfield Ford Mustang enjoying the best years of his NASCAR Cup Series career. Almirola has made the NASCAR Playoffs every season since arriving at SHR in 2018. In fact, in his first year with the organization, Almirola finished a career-best fifth in the championship standings as a member of the 16-driver NASCAR Playoffs and advanced to the Round of 8 for the first time. He won his second career NASCAR Cup Series race Oct. 14 at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway as part of a season-long tally that included four top-five and 17 top-10 finishes and 181 laps led, surpassing all of his previous single-season statistics. Matching those numbers in 2019 proved difficult, but Almirola continued to perform. He scored his second career NASCAR Cup Series pole – and first with SHR – Feb. 22 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. The pole symbolized Almirola's strength in qualifying, where his 10.5 average starting spot was his best in eight full seasons. In terms of top-fives, top-10s and laps led, 2020 was a career year for Almirola. His six top-fives, 18 top-10s and 305 laps led were all season bests, and each significantly bettered his previous yearlong highs from 2018.

Denny Hamlin won today's cup series race from talledega superspeedway. However,according to my eyesight and me,Denny Hamlin advanced his position under the double yellow line and then took the lead and won the race. Going under the double yellow line and advancing your position at the same time is not allowed unless you get forced under there. Denny Hamlin went down there on his own and that is not allowed. He did not get forced. William Byron went under too,but he was forced from the #21 and the #9. Now the wrecks. Kurt Busch went airborne on a lap 107 crash that involved Kurt Busch,Clint bowyer,both playoff contenders. Then an overtime crash in one of the overtime attempts did not make it do to a crash tha t involved playoff contemders Kyle Busch and Kevin harvick.

Our very first guest on the podcast, Jackson Todd (@_JTodd14_ on Twitter) joins us to showcase what he's worked on in the racing community in 2020, including not only pixel art infographics but a small study on LGBT fans in motorsports. Jackson also joins Alex and Zack to discuss the recent events in NASCAR, including the championship "picture" heading to Talladega and silly season: for the racetracks?
In this episode, we talk about probably the most exciting race of the year to date, with a finish for the ages. When a car finishes in 3rd place by crossing the finish line backwards (Almirola), there's not a better example of how exciting racing can be at Talladega Superspeedway. Ryan Blaney won his 2nd Talladega race in a row, by edging out Ricky Stenhouse Jr at the finish line. This week's 6 Degrees of NASCAR features the voice of Detective Pikachu (Pokeman), Ryan Reynolds. Finally, in our Racing Through Life segment, we discuss how the NASCAR community reacted when it was first thought Bubba Wallace was targeted with an act of racism. Although it was later revealed that he wasn't targeted, the symbolic reaction of support will go a long way in demonstrating how important it is to be an ally of those being oppressed. (:40) Talladega Superspeedway is one of the most exciting race tracks on the NASCAR Cup Series circuit but, no lights (10:10) A finish for the ages - with a last lap wreck that saw one car crossing the finish line backwards and Ryan Blaney winning his 2nd straight race at ‘Dega (9:13) Denny Hamlin wins the first in-season race (since 2001) at Homestead-Miami Speedway (17:48) Let's Go Racing Family Five at Talladega Superspeedway (21:45) Next week's NASCAR Cup Series race weekend features a Double Header at Pocono Raceway (6/27 & 6/28) (24:15) Race Picks at next week's race at Pocono Raceway (28:23) Tony's 6 Degrees of NASCAR features Ryan Reynolds (voice of Detective Pikachu - Pokeman) (32:00) Racing Through Life - NASCAR rallies behind Bubba Wallace Thank you to our listeners.

Aric Almirola's career has come full circle at Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), with the driver of the No. 10 Smithfield Ford Mustang having enjoyed the two best seasons of his NASCAR Cup Series career. Almirola has made the NASCAR Playoffs in back-to-back seasons (2018-2019). I caught up with him as he was preparing for his Super Bowl - The Daytona 500! “There are two types of athletes in the world,” he said. “There are the athletes that just want to be a part of the show, and there are the athletes who want to make the show. I'm in the latter category. I want the pressure. I want the ball in my hands when it comes to the game-winning shot. I don't want to have an excuse that my equipment is not where it needs to be. This is that opportunity.” Enjoy getting to know Aric Almirola!

Plenty of patriotic paint jobs in Charlotte this weekend. FOX's Chris Hoenig has this week's NASCAR preview: This weekend, just as it is every Memorial Day weekend, it'll be 600 miles of remembrance for NASCAR, with the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte. Green flag set for Sunday at 6 PM Eastern on FOX. 400 laps around the mile-and-a-half oval. Jimmie Johnson has the most Memorial Day wins of any active driver with four career Coca-Cola 600 victories. He likes that they've added an extra groove to the track this weekend for more side-by-side racing: (Johnson) "Charlotte Motor Speedway works as hard as they possibly can to put on a great show. They're open-minded to any and every idea. But mile-and-a-halves do put on a certain style of racing." Remember, there's an extra stage in this race, so bonus points for whoever leads after laps 100, 200 and 300. Regan Smith will be behind the wheel of the No. 43 Ford as Aric Almirola continues to recover from his broken back. No word who will drive the car after this. Almirola is expected to be out between two and three months. Also a big weekend for IndyCar. The Indy-500 set for Sunday afternoon. FOX in the Fast Lane, I'm Chris Hoenig, FOX News.

FOX's Matt Napolitano has more with "FOX in the Fast Lane": It's All-Star weekend as the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup series goes back under the lights for one hot night.

The first under the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series banner and the last one for Dale Earnhardt Jr, as he reminisced on his rookie All-Star win on his 'Dirty Mo Radio Show': (Earnhardt Jr.) "That was a incredible day. We just won the Texas race and the Richmond race a couple weeks before, so we really were just amazed to be in the race, we didn't think we were going to win it." This year's All-Star race will feature four stages: Three 20 lap stages and one final 10-lap 10-car round to crown a champ. Winner of that stage wins $1 million. Meanwhile, there will be a new driver behind the wheel of the No. 43 Ford at Charlotte.

We discuss the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway. Brad Keselowski won 20th career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race and his 3rd of the 2016 season. Keselowski dominated the event leading 115 of the race's 161 laps. He beat out Kyle Busch and Trevor Bayne for the top spot. Several accidents happened including a 19 car wreck which occurred on lap 91. We'll discuss what happened and what could have prevented it. We'll talk about the racing at Daytona International Speedway. Was it a good race? What could be better? We'll give out our weekly attaboys and disappointments and who should be worried after leaving Daytona. Also Denny Hamlin's comments about the Sprint All-Star Race and Sprint Unlimited made headlines this week. We'll discuss what those were and what we think about them. Another report about the replacement for Sprint came out this week and one reporter mentioned the possibility of 2 title sponsors. What would that do for NASCAR and would that be a good thing? We'll also discuss the NASCAR XFINITY Series race and the controversial finish. Did NASCAR throw the yellow at the right time and should Almirola have been the winner? Also the NASCAR XFINITY Series cars tested this weekend to try and limit tandam drafting for the 2017 season. Is this a step in the right direction for the sport? Will this help the XFINITY Series. Plus we'll preview the triple-header weekend at Kentucky Speedway. It's a freshly paved facility and we'll discuss what that will do for the racing and for drivers.
