NASCAR: Top 5 drivers in the 2021 All-Star Fan Vote

NASCAR has revealed the top five drivers in the All-Star Race Fan Vote for Sunday evening’s race at Texas Motor Speedway.

The annual NASCAR All-Star Race is scheduled to take place this Sunday evening at Texas Motor Speedway for the first time, and 17 drivers are already locked into the race based on this year’s criteria.

Four more drivers will qualify for this six-round, 100-lap race around the four-turn, 1.5-mile (2.414-kilometer) oval in Fort Worth, Texas to make it a 21-car event.

Three will do so by winning the stages of the three-round, 50-lap All-Star Open, and another one doing so by winning the Fan Vote.
