Team Penske Wins at New Hampshire

Last week Toyota was the first manufacturer to grab a win in the Chase; an unsurprising outcome given how dominant Toyota drivers have been this season.

Now as we head to New Hampshire, it’s time for the other top manufacturer, more specifically the other top team in NASCAR to enter the next round of the Chase with a win.

Team Penske is a dual threat at this track and one of the two Penske drivers will win this race on Sunday.

Joey Logano has been quiet this season, especially when compared to how well he ran last year. New Hampshire though is one of his better tracks and over the last four races at the Paper Clip he’s finished in the top five each time. With two wins and an average finish of 15.19, New Hampshire could end up being the spark both Logano and the 22 team need to keep moving forward in the Chase.

While Logano wasn’t running as well this year heading into the Chase, Brad Keselowski has been having one of his best seasons. The driver of the two car entered the post-season with four wins, and when it comes to New Hampshire he’s got an average finish of 10.71 and has one win at this track.

With the momentum Keselowski took into the Chase and a top 10 finish at Chicagoland last week, he looks strong heading into New Hampshire. Logano’s recent results at the Paper Clip and his second place finish last weekend, makes him look ready to dominate at one of his better tracks.

one of these two Penske drivers will end up in Victory Lane on Sunday and Ford will be the second manufacturer moving onto the next round of the Chase.
