Martin Truex, Jr. did more than just score his first career Martinsville Speedway victory on Sunday - he also became the first driver to lock into the Championship 4 for next month at Homestead.

On this week's edition of the Hard Left Turn podcast, Brandon Reed and Amy Henderson review the First Data 500 at Martinsville Speedway, including:

-William Byron drove to a well deserved second place finish on Sunday.
