Oh boy !

For those who didn't followed last year's European F3 season, he was one of the many reasons there was a huge shitstorm mid-season starting at Monza and at Spa. Very crash prone.

Are there any rule changes for the Xfinity Series this year, or will it be dominated by Cup guys again?

Curious if any of you bros did Draftkings NASCAR contests last year. If so, how did it go? I figure watching practice would be a good way to set a lineup for a race, but with crashes, mech failures and all it seems like it'd be hard to be consistent at.

I don't think so.

Besides the Chase, there's supposed to be some suspension/chassis changes that are supposed target the Gibbs/Penske teams and even the playing field.
