Las Vegas Likely A Learning Experience For Shane van Gisbergen
1 month agoAfter failing to advance to the Round of 8 in the NASCAR Xfinity Series playoffs, Shane van Gisbergen had the worst finish of his Xfinity Series career after a fuel-pump failure in Saturday's race. Don't expect much better from him in Sunday's event, as it doesn't seem like he has much speed in the Cup Series yet, apart from road courses and drafting tracks as his 34th-place qualifying run on Saturday indicates. After finishing only 28th with an average running position of 30th in the Coca-Cola 600 in his only other non-drafting intermediate race, it seems like he's going to need more races under his belt before he picks up speed on this track type.
