Aric Almirola Continues His Hot Streak At Pocono
4 years agoStewart-Haas Racing's Aric Almirola picked up his fourth straight top-five, finishing fifth in Sunday's Pocono 350 at Pocono Raceway. Almirola started 18th and methodically worked his way through the field. While he was nowhere near as strong as yesterday, when he was out front for almost half of the race, Almirola managed to lead the field for four laps. Pocono had been Almirola's worst track, so the strong runs in both races by the No. 10 team are a good indicator that they have hit on something. The recent streak of top-fives is a personal best for Almirola, and he has jumped five spots, to ninth, in the Cup Series standings. Almirola has had no success at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, so it will be interesting to see if he can run well next week.
