Kevin Harvick continues to lead the championship standings, but Chase Elliott has closed to within ten points after his second-place finish to Denny Hamlin at Homestead last weekend.
The young guns ruled at Talladega in 2019 with Elliott winning the Spring race and Ryan Blaney narrowly beating out Ryan Newman for the win in the fall race.
Drew Dollar scored his first career ARCA win in Saturday's race before an action-packed Xfinity Series race where Justin Haley led a Kaulig Racing 1-2 finish for the victory.
Overnight, NASCAR revealed has launched an investigation to determine who left a noose in the garage stall of Cup Series driver Bubba Wallace’s No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports team.
