Ty Gibbs is back in Victory Lane! This week on Mash The Gas, we break down Gibbs’ second NASCAR Cup Series win of 2026 after holding off Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Christopher Bell in the Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway.
Bell comes home second yet again, adding another runner-up finish to his 2026 season. How many more times can the No. 20 get this close before finally breaking through?
Denny Hamlin delivered one of the drives of the day, overcoming a deep starting position and brake issues to charge into the Top 5. Meanwhile, it was heartbreak for Tyler Reddick after a Lap 4 crash ended his day early and dealt a major blow to his points advantage.
Then we tackle one of the biggest debates coming out of Iowa: Should Iowa Speedway be repaved? The aging, patched racing surface produces a unique challenge, but how long can NASCAR realistically keep racing on it?
We also break down NASCAR’s new stage-ending caution rule. If a caution comes out with 10 laps or fewer remaining in Stage 1 or Stage 2, NASCAR can now declare the stage complete and use that caution as the stage break. Is it a smart procedural change or another complication NASCAR didn’t need?
Plus, we discuss the latest surrounding the 2027 NASCAR schedule and what we want to see as NASCAR continues shaping the future of the Cup Series.
Finally, it’s time to look ahead to the Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway! We give you our Richmond fantasy NASCAR advice, drivers to watch, expert picks and predictions as the NASCAR Cup Series regular season continues to wind down.
