While the return of most sports leagues remains shaky at best, NASCAR has returned at full speed. Leading the way is driver Aric Almirola who found himself on a hot streak - whether as the only driver that has finished in the top 10 at every race since the stopdown or by crossing the finish line in third place at Geico 500… backwards. The driver of the No. 10 Smithfield Ford Mustang for Stewart-Haas Racing shares how he’s turned this strange season into the best of his career, why he sent a text to Bubba Wallace, and why he’s ready to capture the W at New Hampshire Motor Speedway this weekend. There’s also a delicious moment that will have you lining up at the polls for bacon. This episode proudly supports The Almirola Family Fund, to positively impact children and families being treated at Atrium Health’s Levine Children’s Hospital in North Carolina.
