With three wins and six runner-up finishes at New Hampshire, he has finished top two in a third of his NHMS starts. He has been in contention there lately - he was passed for the win in each of the last two Loudon races - and it has been a productive track for him in general. Despite still narrowly holding onto the points lead, last year’s seven-time winner is still mysteriously winless in 2021, but that could change Sunday. It’s kind of hard to believe given the blistering start to the season he had, but Denny Hamlin may be looking to prove himself this weekend, as well. With plenty to prove, look for these two Ford drivers to come out swinging this weekend.Ģ. DiBenedetto, while up and down this season, is currently on the rise and has finished sixth or better in the last two NHMS jaunts. The 2012 champ Keselowski is the defending winner of the race, showing last season his proclivity with this rules package, extending his top-10 run at the “Magic Mile” to five in the last six there. Now what? Well, there are still 15 races left for each of them with their respective teams, and they’re each capable of winning - particularly at New Hampshire. It certainly was a NASCAR week to remember, and we now know officially Brad Keselowski and Matt DiBenedetto will no longer be with Team Penske and Wood Brothers Racing, respectively, after the season.
