What to Expect: NASCAR Saturday at Kansas Speedway

New Cup owners in NASCAR, including Legacy Motor Club co-owned by Jimmie Johnson, are making bold moves to gain a competitive edge, such as joining Toyota in 2024. Other new owners, including RFK Racing, Trackhouse Racing, and 23XI Racing, have also made significant moves in recent years. RFK Racing has seen a resurgence this season, with both cars scoring consecutive top-10 finishes for the first time since 2014. Kyle Larson's season has been uneven, with six DNFs in the first 11 races, but he leads in playoff points. There has been a different winner in each of the last eight races on 1.5-mile tracks.
