Ty Gibbs Wins Iowa! NASCAR’s “Made-Up Rule” Drama, Reddick’s Points Freefall & Richmond Preview

Ty Gibbs is officially a two-time NASCAR Cup Series winner! Gibbs conquered Iowa Speedway to score the second victory of his Cup Series career, and Kerry Murphey and Toby Christie are breaking down everything from a wild weekend in Iowa on this edition of The Final Lap Weekly. Then it’s time for the NASCAR News of the Week from TobyChristie.com, and there’s plenty to unpack. Kyle Busch’s iconic M&M’s Toyota is making a return — sort of — as NASCAR prepares for a nostalgic tribute that longtime Rowdy fans are going to love. Denny Hamlin wanted different brakes for Iowa, but NASCAR apparently wasn’t interested in letting that happen. We dig into the controversy surrounding NASCAR allegedly threatening to create a “made-up rule” to prevent the change and what that could mean for teams trying to improve their cars. The NASCAR Cup Series point standings are getting shaken up, and one of the biggest stories is Tyler Reddick’s sudden plunge down the standings. How much trouble is he really in as the season heats up? Then we turn our attention to Richmond for a complete weekend preview. Who should thrive at the Short Track, which teams need a huge result, and could we see another surprise winner? Plus, Rowdy Dragon returns with his Fantasy NASCAR Picks for Richmond, giving you the drivers you need to consider before locking in your fantasy lineup. Hosted by Kerry Murphey and Toby Christie, The Final Lap Weekly delivers NASCAR race reactions, breaking news, analysis, controversy, fantasy NASCAR picks, and previews every week.
