Race Preview
The NASCAR Xfinity Series returns to action this week at Darlington Raceway where Chase Briscoe and Brandon Jones won last season. Jeb Burton captured his first series victory two weeks ago at Talladega Superspeedway, continuing his best start to a season. AJ Allmendinger will start this week's race from pole with Austin Cindric on the outside of the front row. This will be the 62nd time the Xfinity series has competed at Darlington, and the track has produced 33 different winners. Only in one race since 2005 has a driver won when starting outside of the top 10. The last time that happened was Briscoe's win last season when he started 11th. There have been seven different Xfinity race winners so far in 2021 and five of them are already locked into the playoffs. Brandon Brown currently occupies the 12th and final playoff spot with Riley Herbst 15 points behind in 13th.
