Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Drivers are ranked and reranked, but the top tier remains the same. Ryan Blaney’s win in Atlanta shakes things up, but it’s still the same familiar faces at the top. Denny Hamlin’s lead is dwindling, but he’s still in the number one spot. The real question is, can anyone actually challenge him for the championship?
And the answer is, probably not.
But hey, at least the rankings are more volatile than they were last week.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
