It’s a 50 minute NASCAR practice session in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s hot in the desert, the temperature reads upwards of 130 degrees inside the race cars as practice gets underway.

There was a big fire are the end of the Truck Series race last night. This morning that spayed water all over the tri-oval. They cleaned all the oil and all the rubber off as well. Drivers aren’t concerned about that area.

Jimmie Johnson is the first car on track in the second practice session at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

15 minutes into the session, Ryan Newman sits at the top of the board.

15 minutes remain in the NASCAR Cup Series practice session. Here are the times so far: 1. Ryan Newman (29.365); 2. Ryan Blaney (29.465); 3. Aric Almirola (29.477); 4. William Byron (29.491); 5. Daniel Suarez (29.537);

Five minutes remain in the session. Only four NASCAR Playoff drivers sit inside the top-10 on the quick times sheet.

Drivers have begun to explore the high side of the race track. The bumps at LVMS have increased in recent years. The top groove could come into play during the race on Sunday.

Ryan Newman hangs on to win practice two for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series!

The MENCS drivers will return to the track for final practice at 3:30. That will be followed by the NASCAR Xfinity Series DC Solar 300.
