LAS VEGAS — At first blush, it seems like an ordinary week in NASCAR heading into Sunday’s South Point 400 playoff race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Joey Logano once again is sitting in a contending position among the Round of 8 drivers still eligible for the championship. And based on his body of work at the 1.5-mile LVMS oval, he once again was made available to the media to talk about it.
But the happy-go-lucky driver of the No. 22 Penske Racing Ford says this is the one NASCAR season where a second blush is as mandatory as safety belts as teams and drivers continue trying to get a grip on the Next Gen car.
