William Byron last week became the first 2-time winner on the NASCAR Cup Series in 2024 while Kyle Larson won last spring’s race at Richmond
After five different winners in the first five starts of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season, William Byron picked up his second victory of the year with his win at Circuit of the Americas last week. The action shifts from a lengthy road course to the tight confines of the three-quarter-mile Richmond Raceway, a D-shaped oval that first hosted a spring race in 1953 and has done so annually since 1959 (save for the 2020 move to Darlington during the COVID-19 pandemic). Kyle Busch gets another shot at matching Richard Petty’s record six spring wins at Richmond, last winning at “America’s Premier Short Track” in 2018.
