Christopher Bell snapped his 33-race winless streak with a crown jewel performance during Sunday’s (Sept. 6th) running of the Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway.
Stock Car Scoop host Eric Schneck takes a deep dive into the 2026 edition of the Southern 500, which includes Bell’s late-race pass of Kyle Larson, discussing the rough days for both Denny Hamlin and William Byron and of course, Brad Keselowski vs Carson Hocevar.
Joining Schneck are Frontstretch reporters Dalton Hopkins and Michael Massie as they analyze the race with this week’s edition of post-race conversations.
Closing out the show, Schneck takes a look at the updated Chase standings, including giving his thoughts on who has a tough row to hoe after round one of The Chase.
