But it was a move early in the event that initially put him in position for a good finish and displayed a mentality that could help him reach the <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/nascar\/\">NASCAR<\/a> Playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Allmendinger opened The Great American Race in 29th after he finished 16th in his qualifying race Thursday night. He then lost the draft of the lead pack after the first round of pit stops and was on the verge of going a lap down with only two laps left in Stage 1 and Riley Herbst as his only drafting partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers about to be lapped typically move far to one side of the track to get out of the way of the leaders as much as possible. Allmendinger instead tried to block Aric Almirola, who was the lead driver on the bottom lane. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almirola was able to maneuver around Allmendinger and force him to the middle lane, but Allmendinger had at least broken up the line\u2019s momentum enough that he did not drop immediately to the back of the field and was able to pass Herbst in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-ability-to-regain-lap-lost-gave-aj-allmendinger-the-break-he-needed-in-the-daytona-500\">The ability to regain lap lost gave AJ Allmendinger the break he needed in the Daytona 500<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Logano gets shuffled! <br><br>ALLMENDINGER TO THE LEAD! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DAYTONA500?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DAYTONA500<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/d7ykucPBCE\">pic.twitter.com\/d7ykucPBCE<\/a><\/p>&mdash; NASCAR (@NASCAR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NASCAR\/status\/1627448883625467904?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 19, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That was arguably Allmendinger\u2019s most important pass of the race because it put him in the lucky-dog position when the stage ended two laps later, which made him eligible to return to the lead lap during the ensuing caution period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He ultimately spent only 26.4% of the race in the top 15, but he avoided the four other wrecks leading to a double-overtime restart to finish the event. Allmendinger actually led Lap 189 of what turned out to be a 212-lap race and found himself in the bottom lane as the field took the white flag to begin the final lap. He then narrowly avoided the final wreck that put an end to the race under caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of that was possible because of his aggressive move nearly 150 laps earlier, but it was not without precedent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ross-chastain-made-enemies-in-2022-appears-eager-to-make-more-at-his-own-risk\/\">Ross Chastain<\/a> made a very similar block during the spring race a year ago at Talladega Superspeedway. He had lost touch with the lead pack late in Stage 1 and made a block when the leaders approached to lap him with nine laps left in the stage. Chastain did fall a lap down, but his block kept him from falling to the back of the field, and he was able to return to the lead lap at the end of the stage as the first car one lap down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chastain was in the top 15 for only 52.1% of the Talladega race, but he had worked his way to the front of the field on the final run and made a pass on the final lap to become the leader for the first time that day and score his second win of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chastain took some criticism at the time for not pulling over and letting the leaders storm past, but it ended up becoming one of the critical moments in the race that allowed him to race for the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">That Allmendinger move at the end of the stage was similar to one Chastain pulled at Talladega last year. Getting lapped, pull out of line, get in front of leaders, pass other lapped car, get free pass. Probably make drivers mad but good strategy <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DAYTONA500?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DAYTONA500<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4jOLqYofA1\">pic.twitter.com\/4jOLqYofA1<\/a><\/p>&mdash; nascarman (@nascarman_rr) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nascarman_rr\/status\/1627417128641916932?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 19, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That non-conforming aggression became a trademark for Chastain throughout a season that saw him reach his first Championship 4 and finish runner-up in the championship standings. Chastain didn\u2019t win a bunch of friends from his fellow racers, but he did complete a career-defining season that has now led to a multi-year contract extension to remain the driver of the No. 1 car at Trackhouse Racing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-allmendinger-could-be-poised-to-race-as-chastain-did-a-year-ago\">Allmendinger could be poised to race as Chastain did a year ago<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1250\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/AJ-Allmendinger-Daytona-500.jpg?w=925&#038;strip=all&#038;quality=89\" alt=\"AJ Allmendinger during qualifying for the 2023 Daytona 500\" class=\"wp-image-1551255\"\/><figcaption>AJ Allmendinger looks on during qualifying for the Busch Light Pole at Daytona International Speedway on February 15, 2023 | Sean Gardner\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Allmendinger is now in a similar make-or-break type of season with <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/kaulig-racing-proposed-aj-allmendinger-roval-challenge\/\">Kaulig Racing<\/a>. He was a full-time driver in the series for 11 seasons but announced he would retire after the 2018 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He ended up still driving a part-time Xfinity Series schedule for Kaulig the next two years and spent 2021-22 as a full-time Xfinity Series driver with a limited number of Cup Series starts each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, a Cup Series win at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course in 2021 and eight top-10s in his 18 Cup Series races a year ago got the noted road-course ace back into the series full-time for 2023 as the pilot of the No. 16 car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, like Chastain, Allmendinger has possibly his last chance to prove his worth as a Cup Series driver. A playoff appearance and maybe a win could keep the 42-year-old in the series for several years to come, but a dud of a season could end his opportunity rather quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AJ Allmendinger is in a position where he can\u2019t afford to race conservatively. His first notable move of the 2023 season showed he\u2019s plenty willing to display the aggression that could both help him win races and be a factor in the playoffs late in the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Daytona 500 showed how AJ Allmendinger could approach this NASCAR season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":1551255,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[253795],"tags":[447254,118377],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.9) -
