After so many years of watching NASCAR on television or in person, I listened to the Sprint Cup race on the radio while driving through Virginia. You get a whole new perspective on a race this way and I will say the announcers on MRN radio did a great job.This was the first race of the three-race Challenger Round and the result was surprising. All 16 Chase drivers knew they had to do well in order to advance to the Contender Round and the announcers remarked several times that the three lowest Chase drivers in the 2014 Chicagoland race failed to advance to the Contender round.
