[autotag]Jimmie Johnson[/autotag] is one of the most successful drivers in Coca-Cola 600 history, so there will be a lot of eyes on his performance this weekend. Johnson will make his second Coca-Cola 600 start with Legacy Motor Club and his first with Toyota Racing. However, what is a reasonable prediction for the seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion on Sunday night?
The first prediction for Johnson is that he will complete all 600 miles after crashing out early in 2023. The driver of the No. 84 car will slowly improve as the race plays out with more time in the NextGen car. Johnson has never finished in the top 20 spots in the new NASCAR vehicle, but that will change on Sunday night.
Johnson will earn his first top-20 finish in the most grueling race of the entire 2024 NASCAR season. The expectations shouldn’t be too high for Johnson, but this is one of his better race tracks. The former Hendrick Motorsports driver should be fast on Sunday night as it will take time. Johnson hasn’t seen as much success in 2024, but it will be a step in the right direction.
