This is the first road-course race of the season for the NASCAR Cup Series. Last week at Atlanta, a controversial caution call on the final lap gave Christopher Bell the win while Carson Hocevar finished second and Kyle Larson third. Ryan Blaney and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. rounded out the top five. Who will win at COTA this weekend?
