Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoff Fast Facts: Race #2 (Richmond)
· This is the first season the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoff’s second race has been held at Richmond Raceway.
· Richmond Raceway is the third track in series history to host the second race of the Playoffs; joining Dover International Speedway (2004-2010) and New Hampshire Motor Speedway (2011–2017).
· When Dover hosted the second race of the Playoffs, twice a driver won and went on to win the series title – Jimmie Johnson (2009 and 2010).
· When New Hampshire moved to the second race in the Playoffs (2011 – 2017), only one driver won the event and went on to win the title – Tony Stewart (2011). Stewart won five races in the 2011 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs (a series-record) including the first two (Chicago and New Hampshire).
· The worst finish by a driver in the second Playoff race that went on to win the title was:
o At Dover:
§ Tony Stewart, in 2005, won the title after he finished 18th at Dover International Speedway – the second race of the 2005 Playoffs.
o At New Hampshire:
§ The 2015 series champion, Kyle Busch, finished 37th in New Hampshire’s Playoff race that season. Last season’s champ, Martin Truex Jr., finished fifth in the Playoff race at NHMS.
· No non-Playoff driver has ever won the second Playoff race at Dover International Speedway (2004-2010) or New Hampshire Motor Speedway (2011-2017).
· Since the inception of the elimination-style format in the Playoffs in 2014, the deepest seeded driver entering the Playoffs to go on and win the title was Kevin Harvick, 2014 (seventh seed); the remaining champions all started within the top five: Kyle Busch, 2015 (No. 1 seed); Jimmie Johnson, 2016 (fifth seed); Martin Truex Jr. (No. 1 seed).
