Sunday Setup: ‘Game of risk’ ahead for Cup Series crew chiefs at Darlington - NASCAR.com
Overview
Darlington Raceway presents a unique challenge where extreme tire wear and a narrow racing groove force crew chiefs into high-stakes decisions for the Goodyear 400. Crew chiefs must weigh track position against tire life, pit timing and risk tolerance, and those calls could determine whether the race stays clean or produces chaotic late restarts. The sudden death of Kyle Busch has added a somber tone to the Cup Series; teams may face emotional distractions, planned tributes or moments of silence that could affect focus and risk-taking during race strategy calls.
