.JensonButton will start from eighth at the NASCAR Cup street race in Chicago. Will he get the 'calmer' race he had hoped for this time around? ⬇️
Button is making his second NASCAR Cup Series start this weekend on the streets of Chicago.- he quickly asserted himself as one of the faster drivers on track.
Button was fourth among the five drivers who advanced from Group A into the final round of qualifying. "It hurt me in Q1, and then in Q2, I had traffic. I can’t do the lap on the first lap, but it was starting my second lap that I had traffic. It was slightly annoying, so I had to do a cool-down lap and then go again. Never works as well. P8 isn’t too bad. I’m pretty happy with that. I just wish we got a clean run in Q2. I would have had a couple more spots. It wouldn’t have been top-three, but it would have been a couple more spots.
