Spade Racing 2x4: Christopher Bell vs. Tyler Reddick, Penultimate Report



Spade Racing has watched the 2020 Cup Series Rookie Class winnow down from six full-time drivers to only two entering their fourth season at the sport’s highest level: Christopher Bell and Tyler Reddick.  We’ll keep following them, but here’s how things look going into Martinsville:


POINTS STANDINGS: Christopher Bell has a big advantage here going into Martinsville, having locked himself into the Championship 4 with last week’s win at Homestead.  Tyler Reddick will have to win or “point” his way in today…but at least he’s better off than Cole Custer.  Advantage: BELL


BEST FINISH: Things are all tied up with each driver posting a pair of wins.  Granted, Cole Custer has two wins as well, but they’re in Xfinity.  Advantage: tie


PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO TEAMMATES: This one’s a tough one.  On the one hand, Reddick has clearly out performed teammate Bubba Wallace, who was eliminated in the Round of 8.  On the other hand, Bell has clearly out performed HIS teammates, two of which likely need to win their way in to the Round of 4.  And ironically, this is one spot where Cole Custer HAS excelled. Advantage: REDDICK


FINAL SCORE: CHRISTOPHER BELL retains his slight lead over Tyler Reddick, but the final two weeks of the season could easily shake things up.
