Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts (New Hampshire)

Welcome to TimersSports

RaceDay Thoughts -


Jeff Nathans (@JeffNathans18):

-The Gibbs cars stood out in practice and they are all capable of finishing inside the top 5.

-Hendrick bunch also showing speed, while proving last week's up front domination was no fluke. They won't repeat last week's performance, but they are looking much better of late

-Kyle Larson looked great on the short run in practice, but my worries is on the long run. However, if you need a dark horse pick, then look no further than the driver who starts 6th.

-Track position will be key today!

Garry Briggs (@Garryy12):

-Aric Almirola is a great sleeper for today and could make a powerful option on Fantasy Live. He's starts 26th and has finished 21st or better in every race on this type of track. At end of final practice, RPM's twitter account tweeted that Aric said car has speed. I like those kind of comments!

- Casey Mears is another great sleeper for today in positional differential leagues! He's starts from 31st and has finished 22nd or better in 3 of past 4 New Hampshire races

- Danica Patrick starts from 24th place and has finished inside the top 16 in the last two races on this type of track. It's hard to get behind her on most formats, but nice value pick if you want to go deep.

-I expect Truex to dominate after getting around Edwards

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

-Penske been an afterthought this weekend, which isn't something you normally hear at New Hampshire. But they haven't been talked about at all, I think they will be better!

-Track position is huge, if you get out front then you have a great chance to lead a bunch of laps for awhile

-AJ Dinger is a great driver here at New Hampshire. He performs quite well on this type of track normally.He should be good for a top 20 finish

-Kyle Busch is being overlooked for some reason this week by most. He been awesome this weekend overall. Very fast racecar
