This week on Four Wide, we delve into the Jack Link’s 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, where Austin Cindric clinched his first win of the season. However, the race was not without controversy. Post-race inspections disqualified Ryan Preece and Joey Logano due to rear spoiler violations, reshuffling the final standings.
Beyond the penalties, we critically examine the current superspeedway package. The race's lack of significant incidents, often referred to as "The Big One," and the overall subdued on-track action have raised questions about the effectiveness of the current aerodynamic setup in promoting competitive racing.
Looking ahead, we preview the upcoming Würth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway. The event promises a weekend full of racing excitement, including the CRAFTSMAN Truck Series, Xfinity Series, and the NASCAR Cup Series.
Tune in as we break down the implications of Talladega's outcomes and set the stage for the lack of battles anticipated in Texas.
