This bar chart displays the number of races each driver competed in before achieving their first NASCAR win, using data spanning from 1975 to 2003. The visualization, built with D3 v5 and rendered as SVG, enhances a prior version by adding interactive hover tooltips via the `d3.tip` library. When hovering over a bar, a tooltip shows the driver's starts, win year, and track. A scale band maps drivers along the x-axis, while a linear scale maps starts on the y-axis.

AI-generated description

This bar chart is an expansion on a previous viz I created which shows the number of starts it took each winner in the dataset to win their first race. This comes from the NASCAR dataset, which spans from 1975 to 2003. While the data is the same, this version incorporates the idea of being able to hover over one of the bars, and get information on that driver's first win. Highlighted data includes the number of starts, the year, and the track they won on.

**Fix: The Y-axis
