NASCAR at Richmond 2018: Start Time, Ticket Info, Lineup, Odds and TV Schedule

Brad Keselowski Directs the 2018 Dragon Energy NASCAR Cup Series into the second race of the playoffs at Richmond Raceway on Sunday for the Federated Auto Parts 400.

Keselowski, clearly pulling inspiration from other multi-race winners this year, won his third race in a row through the initial event of the postseason, pulling him ahead on the leaderboard for now.

The outcomes through a week pose some interesting questions and lessons, the larger of the latter being easy enough–regular-season wins do not necessarily equate to postseason success. Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch may have 13 combined checkered flags, but it’s Keselowski in control of the postseason up to now.

Saturday presents another opportunity for those without a playoff win so much, while the rear end of the leaderboard has to begin thinking about the looming cut afternoon.
