LAS VEGAS — Understandably, much of the focus during NASCAR’s tripleheader weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway will fall squarely on Christopher Bell.
The driver of the No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota will become the first driver since Jimmie Johnson in 2007 to win four straight NASCAR Cup Series races, if he’s first to the finish line in Sunday’s Pennzoil 400 Presented by Jiffy Lube (3:30 p.m. ET on FS1, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).

A race-ending mistake last Saturday at Phoenix Raceway cost Austin Hill the NASCAR Xfinity Series lead.
Just 61 laps into the fourth event of the season, Hill bounced off the inside wall in Turn 3 and collected the cars of Sheldon Creed and Dean Thompson. Hill finished 37th and fell to fourth in the standings as Richard Childress Racing teammate Jesse Love took over the points lead with a ninth-place finish.

Former Las Vegas winner Grant Enfinger holds a one-point lead over reigning champion Ty Majeski in the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series standings entering Friday night’s Ecosave 200 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (9 p.m. ET on FS1, NRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
Driving a Ford for owner Mike Curb, Enfinger took the checkered flag in 2018, before Toyota ran off a string of seven straight victories at the 1.5-mile intermediate track. Kyle Busch and Rajah Caruth have won the two most recent races at LVMS in Chevrolets, both from the pole.
