Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts

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):

- Passing will be very tough today. Starting deep in the field isn't ideal today. It will not be as bad as Indy, but still pretty tough. Anyone surprised?

- Joe Gibbs Racing is legit. 4 of the top 6 starting positions were held by them in qualifying.

- Kevin Harvick looks to be the man to beat in practice. He was not dominant, but I think he will be one of the heavy favorites.

-Driver to watch starting deep in the field is Kyle Busch. He qualified 6th but using an backup car now. Don't ever doubt Kyle Busch abilities.

Garry Briggs (@Garryy12):

-Engines could be an huge problem today. Can your engine go the distance? Austin Dillon blew up after 70 laps in practice. He won't be the first and he will not be the last.

- AJ Dinger was the latest victim to the Garry's Jinx..So who is my pick to disappoint this week? Kyle Busch. He starting deep in the field after going to an backup. Tough to like his chances. Especially since his Michigan record is pretty inconsistent.

- Clint Bowyer is a good driver to consider if you are looking for an top 12 driver under the radar. He has nice long run speed, too.

-How will strategies play out today? Track position will be important. This should help the drivers deeper in the field like Larson and Menard

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

-Driver to watch from 22nd starting position is Martin Truex Jr. He was bad fast in final practice. I was pretty impressed by that car's speed.

-Having JGR cars in your fantasy lineups seems like an good idea. They all are fast. The driver being overlooked may be Denny Hamlin, even though he is starting from 2nd.

-What is wrong with the RCR cars. Dillon was the only one that looked good and he starting from the back I have heard.

-My pick to win is Kevin Harvick. I think he will get the lead early and often. He may have his hands full all day though.
