Last week at Talladega we got to see more fuel mileage racing, but thankfully RFK decided to spice things up and make the first stage exciting. Then at the end we saw Kyle Larson lead, lose the lead, then gain it back again all in the same lap to win. Next up, we head from the biggest oval on the regular season schedule to the smallest, Martinsville. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Martinsville Speedway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position in the Next Gen era. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
In this post you will only find active and Next Gen stats, if you are looking for all-time stats check out my previous article All-Time Cup Track Stats: Martinsville.
Active means any driver who started a race in the 2026 Cup Series season.
