2014 Recap: Hornish only made one start in place for Hamlin with JGR. He started 13th and finish 17th. Hornish was racing on the NNS side in the 54 car in 2014 mainly. Be interesting to see how he does with RPM.
Strong tracks: Richmond and Watkins Glenn
Weak tracks: Bristol , Kansas and Phoenix.
Additional info on Sam Hornish Jr: Now if you have played fantasy nascar since 2007. You probably aren't buying into Hornish for 2015. Big reason is because he's inconsistent and not exactly super talented. At times , Hornish should show flashes of potential. But he will also wreck out a lot too. Only 9 Top 10s in 131 starts. This is in equality or better equipment to RPM. He's will finish 17th - 25th a lot. Count on that.
Yahoo Grouping Prediction: C Grouping Tier
Overall Value Prediction: Overvalued/ Inconsistent
2015 Fantasy Outlook: Hard saying what Hornish will be. Honestly I expect Hornish to show flashes of brilliances. But more often then not , he will likely be running in the upper teens or twenties. I would describe Hornish as the American vision of Marcos Ambrose. Realistically I DON'T think Hornish will be much better then Ambrose was. RPM never been a powerhouse afterall. In 2015 , I expect 1 Top 5s , 2 Top 10s , 9 Top 15s , 18 Top 20s
