NASCAR Mailbox: Is Riley Herbst Turning a Corner?

Riley Herbst had a decent day running inside the top 15 all day at Kansas Speedway on Sunday. He converted that into a 14th-place finish. Was this drive the best of his Cup Series career, and is he starting to turn a corner in his development?

Also, Alex Bowman had a quiet day finishing in 18th, a solid outing where nothing went wrong. What kind of momentum can the No. 48 team take from that, and what is needed for them to have a shot at salvaging a chase berth from the season?

Frontstretch.com’s Ben Lloyd answers these questions in this week’s episode of the NASCAR mailbox.
