Bell has the chance Sunday to become the first driver since Jimmie Johnson in 2007 to win four consecutive Cup Series races — an accomplishment that only eight drivers have achieved in the modern era of NASCAR that began in 1972.

Bell never led the Pennzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube and found himself constantly having to maneuver through traffic.

This weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Bell is in position to win fourth straight Cup Series race, a modern record for the sport. Since 1972, NASCAR has only seen that feat accomplished eight times, with five of those instances resulting in that driver becoming Cup champion that year.
