Despite a spring slump knocking him out of NASCAR Cup Series regular-season championship contention, Christopher Bell remains poised for a strong finish as a Joe Gibbs Racing driver. While he was 15th in the standings at the All-Star Race break, Bell quickly rebounded with two more wins and now leads the series in stage wins with 10. As the regular season concludes at Darlington Raceway on Sunday night, Bell sits in sixth place with the chance to improve his position further. With seeding and playoff points on the line, any advancement for Bell could boost his chances of making the Championship 4 for the third consecutive year. The question remains: How does Bell feel now as his team continues to climb back toward the top of the standings?
