Parker Kligerman highlighted potential trouble for NASCAR drivers at critical Chicago section

Parker Kligerman, a part-time Craftsman Truck Series driver and NASCAR Cup Series commentator, provided a detailed analysis of the critical sections of the Chicago street circuit ahead of the Grant Park 165 race. He highlighted the challenges drivers would face, particularly around turn 3, which includes what he described as the trickiest braking zone in all of NASCAR due to a mix of about a hundred different types of asphalt and an incredibly bumpy surface.

The tight section between turns 4 and 5, as well as the slow turn 7 located at Michigan Avenue, considered one of the best passing zones, posed significant risks for contact if drivers attempted side-by-side racing.

"After turn 3, you enter the trickiest braking zone in all of NASCAR, possibly motorsports, and it is about a hundred different asphalt types that you'll run across. It's incredibly bumpy, and then you enter a very tight section, from turn 4 to turn 5... Down into turn 7, that looks at Michigan Avenue there. A super slow corner, one of the best passing zones possibly. If you try to go side-by-side, it's most likely gonna end in contact," Parker Kligerman said via CW Sports.

Kligerman, drawing from his experience racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series on the Chicago street course in past seasons, described the circuit as one of the best street courses worldwide, comparing it to elite venues like Monaco and Long Beach.

However, the Chicago street circuit will not be returning to NASCAR next season after losing its place on the 2026 calendar.
