The Cup Series returns to the oval ciricut after a couple of road course races that were dominated by one man. Supercar legend Shan van Gisbergen outclassed the field in Chicago and at Sonoma last Sunday, giving him three straight road-course victories, further bolstering his playoff status.

Meanwhile, Dover will serve as the semifinals of NASCAR's In-Season Challenge, where now just four drivers remain. No. 32 seed Ty Dillon continues his Cinderella run through the tournament and will be matched up with No. 12 seed John Hunter Nemechek, while No. 23 seed Tyler Reddick faces No. 6 seed Ty Gibbs on the other side of the bracket.
