Chicago Street Race or Chicagoland Speedway? The schedule debate is already here: should NASCAR head back downtown, or has the oval earned its place as the sport’s Chicago-area home?

On this episode of Frontstretch Happy Hour, Bryan Nolen, Michael Massie, and Dalton Hopkins break down the biggest NASCAR news and debates coming out of the weekend.

Shane van Gisbergen vs. Austin Hill is the latest flashpoint. Should NASCAR issue post-race penalties for incidents officials do not catch in the moment, or does the sport need to handle those calls before the checkered flag?

We’ll also ask whether Chase Briscoe is now a legitimate NASCAR Cup Series title contender, take on the growing IndyCar vs. NASCAR popularity conversation, and admit our In-Season Tournament bracket is completely wrecked … though somehow, we are not in last place.

Chicago Street Race or Chicagoland? Should NASCAR hand down penalties after the race? And is Chase Briscoe ready to make a real title run?
