LOUDON, N.H. (WPRI) — New England's only NASCAR weekend is here, and this time it's for the playoffs. The Cup Series Mobil 1 301 will kick off the Round of 12 on Sunday at 2 p.m. on USA Network. New Hampshire's track is known as the "Magic Mile" since its length is 1.058 miles.
Loudon the Lobster is a unique trophy given to the winner each year in New Hampshire. It's a real lobster that usually weighs between 18 and 28 pounds. What happens to the lobster? That's up to the winner. Christopher Bell is the defending winner, and he's coming off a win last weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway. While Bell may be the favorite to win this Sunday, his toughest competition may be his own teammates. Chase Briscoe and Denny Hamlin have also already earned wins in the playoffs, with Joe Gibbs Racing swee
