JGR takes fourth win of the season thanks to Christopher Bell
Christopher Bell has already made a strong start to his NASCAR Cup Series rookie season. His win in the season-opening Texas 500 earned him a spot for the playoffs. This could allow him to make an impact in the next season. Bell has already shown that he is capable of winning on short tracks and roads and has the potential for being a serious contender in the championship in the years ahead.
Bell is now 4-0 for the Cup Series. He has also won two Xfinity Series races. Bell won three races in 2018, and one in 2019. He followed that with his fourth win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway's Ambetter301. He had to hold off the reigning Cup Series leader Chase Elliott, who had won the race a week earlier.

How To
How to get started racing in another nation
First, find a club in your area where you can practice and compete. Driving in foreign countries can prove difficult due to different laws. Some countries do not allow drivers to pass at any other point. Others allow drivers to overtake only when they enter a roundabout. Some countries require that cars make a specific sound when entering or exiting a roundabout. The best thing you can do before you travel to another country is to read the regulations. By doing this, you will not be charged with breaking the law and won't face any ticket from the police.
