Pocono Raceway

Career wins: 2

Last three races: 5.7 average finish, 2 top-five finishes

Earnhardt Jr. won both races at Pocono in 2014, despite only leading a total of 25 laps between the two. Those two wins are his only career victories at the Tricky Triangle, but his past three races there make him the driver to beat when NASCAR visits the track twice this summer.

Earnhardt Jr. has the best average finish amongst active drivers in their last three races at Pocono with a 5.7 and is one of five drivers who have two or more top-fives in those races.

Earnhardt Jr. missed the second summer race at Pocono last year, but this year will have two opportunities to pick up a victory and earn his spot in the playoffs.
