Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts (WGI)

Welcome to TimersSports

Happy Raceday. Setting your fantasy team can be difficult , especially with everything being factored in. Below our group of experts give their thoughts on today race (Including their final
picks).

Kate Roswell (@CrazyKateNascar):

-Talk of the weekend been AJ Dinger! He been pretty hyped up like at Sonoma. However I think the results will be quite different. I think he will deliver a must needed win for the 47 team.

- I think today's race will be very crazy and personally would not be shocked to see a lot of poor fantasy scores. Especially after watching the NXS race.

-Pit strategy is the word of the day. We will hear it over and over. How the cautions fall may determine which strategies work and which ones don't.

- Don't overlook Jeff Gordon. He had one of the best cars in practice and starting up front.

Garry Briggs (@Garryy12):

-Kevin Harvick is the guy to watch I think. He was very fast in practice and probably had the car to beat or close to it IMO.

- Who is my pick to disappoint today? AJ Dinger. He starts on the pole. However I wasn't all too impressed by him in final practice. That doesn't mean much since it only practice, but there a lot of good cars behind him. I don't think he will dominate like everyone is expecting.

-I was very surprised to see Bowyer to qualify so poorly on Saturday. Wondering what exactly he have in store for us today. I think he is now under the radar. Time to pounce on some of that sweet sweet value.

-Is Smoke back? I sure hope so. If anyone needs a win, I would say it this guy.

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

-I think Kyle Busch will come close to another win on Sunday but come up short. Man he been impressive lately. However I would not be shocked to see him win another.

- How bout some love for Martin Truex Jr? Fast at Indy, fast at Pocono and fast again at Watkins Glenn. I smell another hot streak coming from the 78.

- Kyle Larson is a great fantasy option today. I believe this is a great place to unload him. Larson starts from 6th and should finish about there too.

- Best advice today is go with your gut. After watching yesterday NXS race, I think pit road will be a major problem.
