2017 Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts (RIR)

Welcome to TimersSports

RaceDay Thoughts -

Jeff Nathans (@JeffNathans18):

-Gibbs cars look really strong this weekend so far. 

-The CGR cars, both Larson and JMac, are looking really good. Especially on the long runs

-I think Denny Hamlin is gonna be great today, even though a lot of people are overlooking him due to slow start. I am not!

-People stop comparing Richmond to Bristol. The only thing similar about them is they are short tracks. They are vastly different. Compare Richmond to Phoenix, if you are going to compare

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

-Track position will be huge today at Richmond.

-The winner has came from the front row at Richmond in 31% of the time. Matt Kenseth and Ryan Blaney are starting on the front row

- Clint Bowyer's crew chief said that they were really consistent toward end of final practice. That defintely not a bad thing.

-A good value pick this week could be a guy like Aric Almirola. He's fairly cheap in most fantasy games. Him starting 25th makes Aric a really solid play in most fantasy formats. Good chance he will move up about 5 to 7 spots
