I disagree. If you were to imagine a “complete” Pocono as similar to the shape of Indy, it would in fact be turn 1 that is missing. Instead, turn 4 takes the hypotenuse straight to turn 2 bypassing the imaginary first turn.

In my opinion, it’s not the package that’s responsible for this. It’s the young, fearless, and less experienced drivers in Trucks that make the racing so intense/exciting to watch. Sometimes the Cup guys are just too darn smart & good! 😂

Seeing some confusion tonight: People are praising the Truck racing but saying they hope NASCAR holds off on draft package for Cup. Folks, they’re trying to make Cup racing closer to what you’re seeing tonight. Bunched-up fields, drafting, little off-throttle time.
