Summary

As NASCAR moves on from Phoenix to Las Vegas, motorsports reporter Jeff Gluck sits down with two drivers who find themselves at opposite ends of the new points format: Chase Briscoe and Shane Van Gisbergen.

Jeff also chats with reporter Bob Pockrass to learn more about the upcoming IndyCar Series events in Arlington and Washington D.C.
