Jeff Burton has been around NASCAR for a long time, making his debut as a driver in the Xfinity Series back during the 1988 season. He went on to make nearly 700 starts at the Cup level, winning 21 races. But for the past decade, he has worked as TV analyst for NBC's NASCAR coverage.
This week, I had the opportunity to speak with Burton on behalf of Motorsport.com, discussing a myriad of topics including the hotly debated playoff format. Rumors are accelerating around possible changes, focusing on opening the final round beyond a single race. No official announcements have been made, but one could be coming very soon.
