In spite of this, he does not think that he is one of the favourites. On the other hand, he knows that if he is consistent enough, he can boost his chances of vaulting up the order.

Logano will be aiming for redemption, after he triggered a massive crash last weekend. In the process, he did not make very good friends with Bubba Wallace, Ricky Stenhouse Jr and several other drivers. This time, he will be hoping to stay out of harm’s way and avoid any unnecessary incidents.
