Ty Gibbs surprised everyone with a victory last Saturday evening on the Daytona road course. While we knew he’d be making multiple starts during the 2021 season in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, we didn’t know the plan yet. Now, we do.
Gibbs, the grandson of Joe Gibbs, will run an additional 14 races in 2021. His win on Saturday put him on a list with Dale Earnhardt (1982), Joe Ruttman (1982), Ricky Rudd (1983), Terry Labonte (1985) and Kurt Busch (2006) as winners of their very first NXS race. Can he get a second victory now?
If so, he’ll get the chance at these races –
March 13 – Phoenix
April 9 – Martinsville
May 8 – Darlington
May 15 – Dover
May 29 – Charlotte
June 5 – Mid-Ohio
June 27 – Pocono
July 3 – Road America
Aug. 7 – Watkins Glen
Aug. 14 – Indianapolis
Aug. 21 – Michigan
Sept. 11 – Richmond
Oct. 9 – Charlotte
Oct. 23 – Kansas
