Martin Truex Jr. hunts a 4th spring victory at Dover Motor Speedway, with qualifying for the Würth 400 set for Saturday morning
Last year, Martin Truex Jr. joined an elite group of six drivers with at least three wins in the spring at Dover Motor Speedway. This weekend, the 2017 NASCAR Cup champion looks to become just the third with four victories in the Würth 400. Qualifying at The Monster Mile, scheduled for Saturday morning, hopes to return after rain scrubbed it in 2023. Meanwhile, Tyler Reddick comes off his first win of the season last weekend at Talladega, running the total number of drivers with provisional playoff berths clinched via victory lane to seven. William Byron leads the circuit with three wins this season while Denny Hamlin boasts two. The rest of the victors includes Daniel Suárez, Kyle Larson, Christopher Bell and Chase Elliott.

Dover Motor Speedway opened in 1969, when it hosted its first spring event on the NASCAR Cup Series. The race covers 400 miles and 400 laps around the oval, with two stages of 120 laps and a final segment of 160. Truex claimed last year’s checkered flag by 0.505 seconds over Ross Chastain after starting 17th in the race.
Larson, the 2021 Cup champion, leads Truex in the driver standings through 10 starts by a 15-point margin. Elliott sits 22 points back, followed by Byron (24 points behind), Reddick (43), Hamlin (51), defending Cup champion Ryan Blaney (57), Ty Gibbs (63), Chastain (82) and Alex Bowman (98).
Jimmie Johnson’s six victories stand as the spring record at Dover, one more than Bobby Allison. David Pearson, Richard Petty and Matt Kenseth join Truex as three-time victors.
