Where is this race?
The Food City 500 is at Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee, one of two races this season at this track. The drivers return on Aug. 19 for the Bass Pro Shops NRA Night Race.
Carl Edwards won the Food City 500 at Bristol in 2016, and has won this race two times in the last three years.
Quotable
Waltrip, who won a record 12 times in his career at Bristol, doesn’t think Edwards will repeat at the Food City 500 in 2017.
“It should be an interesting battle between Joey Logano, Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch,” Waltrip said. “Beyond that, it’s anyone’s game. I can promise you it won’t be a repeat winner from last spring, though.”
