There is nothing like a great comeback.
Reed Sorenson, currently third in the standings 47 points back from Ricky Stenhouse Jr., has the opportunity to kick off his own comeback and make a run at the NASCAR Nationwide Series championship this weekend at Dover.
In 10 career races at Dover, Sorenson has six top fives and nine top 10s. His only hiccup was a 27th-place finish in 2007 when an accident took him out of contention. His average finish in five fall races is 5.2, including a fourth-place result in this race last year. He was third at Dover in May.
Sorenson leads Stenhouse and Sadler in pre-race Driver Rating (100.9), Average Running Position (9.240), and Laps in the Top 15 (1,722 laps) 85.4% at Dover.
A lot of Sorenson’s success this season is due to his ability to move through the field and his season-to-date Loop Data stats back that up. He leads all championship contenders in Quality Passes (1,013) and Green Flag Passes (1,531).
In three of the last six tracks on the schedule, Sorenson has the best average finish amongst Stenhouse and Sadler – Dover, Charlotte and Texas.
