This weekend, the NASCAR Canada Series is heading to Quebec for its second event of the season, at Autodrome Chaudière. This Saturday marks a racing milestone for the driver of the No. 47 WeatherTech Dodge, who will participate in his 155th series race.
It’s also the start of a seven-race streak on oval tracks for Canada’s national stock car series.
The three-time champion is no stranger to Autodrome Chaudière, as L.P. and Dumoulin Competition frequently use the track to dial in their WeatherTech oval car.
“I really like this track. Autodrome Chaudière has quite banked turns, which makes it pleasant for the drivers, and the races there are always very competitive,” says Dumoulin.
“It’s a 300-lap race in which the strategy is defined mainly according to the position on the starting grid. If you are well qualified, you can stay at the forefront throughout. Otherwise, you have to be patient and take advantage of restarts to gain positions and to be among the leaders at the end.”
Dumoulin currently sits third in the NCS standings.
