The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series heads to Bristol Motor Speedway for Sunday’s running of the Food City 500, with pre-race coverage starting at 12:30 p.m. ET on FS1, and the race at 2 p.m. on FOX.

The racing at Bristol is always fast and intense, usually featuring intense battles and lots of trading paint as the drivers trade positions.

Among active drivers, here are the 15 with the best average finishes at the high-banked, 0.533-mile Bristol track.

The 2012 Cup champion is a two-time Bristol winner, and in the first seven races of 2017, he’s the only driver to win more than once.

In a dreadful one-and-done year with HScott Motorsports in 2016, Bowyer scored just three top-10 finishes. One of those was a solid eighth-place effort last spring at Bristol.

In last year’s August night race, Dillon had his best Bristol finish, coming home fourth.

Like younger brother Kyle, Kurt Busch has five Bristol victories, tied for tops among active drivers. But Kurt’s last victory here came way back in 2006.

Among active drivers, the Busch brothers are tied with five wins apiece. But Kyle has had three DNFs in his last four races here.

A four-time Bristol winner, Kenseth would surely love to make it No. 5 this weekend, especially since he and his Joe Gibbs Racing team have gotten off to a slow start.

With one victory and 10 top fives in 30 starts, Johnson has done fairly well at Bristol. Then again, he’s usually fast wherever he races.

OK, this one is a little misleading, because Elliott’s only had two starts at Bristol, but he did finish fourth here in the spring race last season.
