What drivers had to say after Sunday’s Cup race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway:. Kyle Larson — Winner: “It’s for sure up there. Like you mentioned, this is just such a prestigious place.. such hallowed ground. Pretty neat to get an opportunity to race here on the oval again. What a job by our team. I mean, never gave up at all. We had the pit stop issue there early on. Just fought, dug and had things work out. Just can’t thank them enough. Hendrickcars.com, Valvoline, Chevrolet, JINYA Ramen Bar, Prime; all the fans, too. I love you, Indiana fans. I know you guys love me, too. How about we come back next May and try to kiss these bricks in an INDYCAR?”

Hailie Deegan is currently without a ride in NASCAR after she and AM Racing decided to part ways after 17 Xfinity Series events. Despite signing a multi-year contract, Deegan is no longer racing in NASCAR and is looking to find something during the Olympic break. However, could the 23-year-old driver sign a deal with a new NASCAR team in the Xfinity Series?
According to Haas Factory Team president Joe Custer through NBC Sports, the NASCAR team wants to help unlock Deegan as an Xfinity Series driver but will reserve that idea for future conversations. The Haas Factory Team is led by Custer and Gene Haas, who come from Stewart-Haas Racing. The organization plans to shut down after the 2024 NASCAR season.
Deegan joining Haas Factory Team would be a massive step in her career. It’s unclear how the NASCAR organization would compare to Stewart-Haas Racing. Yet, the former AM Racing driver’s future with Ford may not be over. Deegan is looking for the best opportunity to expand on her racing career, and Haas Factory Team’s Xfinity Series program could be the best fit.

NASCAR has concluded the 2024 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, meaning the Olympic break has begun. NBC Sports will carry coverage for the 2024 Paris Olympics, so NASCAR will stay on the sidelines for the next few weeks. However, when will NASCAR return from the Olympic break in 2024?
The NASCAR Cup and Truck Series will return at Richmond Raceway on August 10-11, but there will be 19 days of zero on-track action from July 22 to August 9. Meanwhile, the NASCAR Xfinity Series won’t return until Michigan International Speedway on August 16-17, which is 26 days of no racing. It is the sport’s biggest break of the 2024 season.
This will be an excellent opportunity for the drivers and teams to breathe before the last 14 weekends of the 2024 NASCAR season. There will be no racing for the next two weekends, meaning it will be almost three weeks until there is racing again. NASCAR doesn’t have many breaks during the season, so this is much needed for the drivers and teams.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
