PODCAST: Hard Left Turn - Strategy lands Larson in Martinsville victory lane

Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway really came down to pit strategy - and Kyle Larson's team played that strategy perfectly.

The call by the No. 5 team to take only two tires on the final pit stop of the day got Larson off pit road first.  He pounced quickly on those who had stayed out on old tires, and it paid off with his second win of the season.

Our Hard Left Turn crew takes a look at all the news coming out of Martinsville, and gets you ready for this weekend's return to high speeds at Talladega Superspeedway.

WDUN will carry live MRN Radio coverage of the NASCAR race weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, beginning with Saturday's NASCAR Xfinity Series Ag-Pro 300 at 3:30 pm on 102.9 FM and streaming live on AccessWDUN.  Coverage continues on Sunday with the NASCAR Cup Series GEICO 500 at 2 pm on 102.9 FM, AM 550 and streaming live on AccessWDUN.
