WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. — NASCAR’s 10-week playoff puts drivers through an emotional rollercoaster and mentally challenges them over the final 70 days of the season.

 

Kyle Larson entered the playoffs as the No. 1 seed and left the playoff opener last weekend at Atlanta 10th in points after a crash. He starts 20th in today’s race at Watkins Glen (3 p.m. ET on USA Network).

 

Larson faces some hurdles in today’s race and how he handles them will determine what he’ll need to do in next week’s cut-off race at Bristol to advance to the second round.
