Sunday's Cup race at Las Vegas can proceed in a manner of relief thanks to the health of Ryan Newman, who was released from Daytona Beach's Halifax Medical Center on Wednesday. The driver of the No. 6 Roush Fenway Racing Ford Mustang will not compete in this week's race as he continues to recover from his terrifying accident on the last lap of the Daytona 500.
"No one could ever take the place of Ryan Newman on the track and I can't wait to have him back," said Ross Chastain, who will race Newman's car at Las Vegas. "As we continue to pray for a full and speedy recovery, I'll do my best to make him and everyone at Roush Fenway Racing proud."
Team Penske's Joey Logano set a Las Vegas Motor Speedway race record (154.894 mph average) when he won last year's Pennzoil 400, and he again will be among the favorites at the track in 2020. The 2017 Cup Series champion boasts the best average finishing position (8.5) and the best average running position (9.162) among drivers in Sunday's field.
Logano has five top-five and nine top-10 finishes at Vegas; only Kevin Harvick (10 top 10s and seven top fives) has more. Logano also has never suffered a DNF in 13 starts at the track. He and Penske teammate Brad Keselowski have won three of the past six races at Las Vegas.
Only one driver (Jimmie Johnson, four) has more wins at Las Vegas than Keselowski (three), who finished second behind Logano in last year's Pennzoil 400.
