NASCAR took a week off last week after the race at Texas. Let’s take a look at how the Joe Gibbs Racing drivers stand going into Bristol after their spring break.

After seven races, the drivers at Joe Gibbs Racing can only look ahead to the future hoping for better results. The Toyota drivers find themselves falling short of their high expectations to start 2017. The experience within JGR would lead you to believe the story told so far would be more positive than four teams trying to find their way.

The off week may have come at a perfect time for all four JGR teams. Hopefully they spent their time looking back at the first handful of races and got some things figured out. Improvement is the only option going forward as fans of these drivers are expecting bigger and better results. Let’s see what these teams have done so far and what they have to build on.
