One would think Ty Gibbs is the ARCA Menards Series driver most looking forward to Saturday’s Dutch Boy 150 at Kansas Speedway (1:30 p.m. ET, FS1). The fourth race of the 2021 season represents a chance for the 18-year-old Joe Gibbs Racing driver to rebound from his disappointing finish last week at Talladega.

Joey Logano of Middletown, CT wasn’t as dominant as Denny Hamlin but felt he had just as good a chance to win Sunday’s Cup race at Richmond.
Hamlin led on the final restart with 10 of 400 laps remaining with Logano lined up alongside him. While Hamlin had led the most laps in the race, Logano had shown the ability to lead late in the event.
It looked like the duo would duel to the finish.
Enter Alex Bowman. (more…)
