Here’s who NBC’s writers think will win today’s race at Talladega Superspeedway (2 p.m. ET on NBC).
Dustin Long
Brad Keselowski. Team Penske roll on the plate tracks continues.
Nate Ryan
Martin Truex Jr. Finally breaks through for his first restrictor-plate win in Cup in his final plate race with Furniture Row Racing.
Daniel McFadin
Jimmie Johnson and Chad Knaus begin their final six races together with a win.
Dan Beaver
Talladega is always good for a great storyline. Clint Bowyer survives his first race on this track in his last three starts in a big way and advances in the playoffs.
