## Resource

Doug, Devin, and Dan heap praise on Ryan Blaney and really analyze the importance of good points days, including from one driver who should have had a worse one. They also rate NASCAR-IndyCar double-bills, wonder aloud about any panic in the points standings, and preview the first 1.5-mile test this season in Vegas.
