Less data means Toyota takes longer to validate its simulations relative to other manufacturers. Limited practice time forces teams to rely heavily on simulations. With only six cars, Toyota collects a third of the data Ford and Chevy collect. The Next Gen car has challenged everyone, but Toyota more than most.

In 607 races, the 42-year-old driver has 31 wins, 132 top-five finishes and 257 top-10 finishes. The man has literally had to start over more than once. That history is to help make sense of the ups and downs in Truex’s career graph. Truex has been with Joe Gibbs Racing since 2019 and announced in June that he would stay with the team for the 2023 season. Truex won the championship three years later, only to have Furniture Row announce it would shutter after the 2018 season. Then “ Spingate” cost him his sponsor, and he landed at Furniture Row Racing. His second win came seven years later, with Michael Waltrip Racing. He earned his first points win with Dale Earnhardt, Inc. Truex ran his first Cup Series race in 2004 at age 24. There’s been at least one new winner in the last four regular-season races every year since 2018. and Ryan Blaney for the last playoff spot - unless that winner is Truex or Blaney.

One playoff-eligible new winner in the next four Cup Series races will force a duel between Martin Truex, Jr.
