2018 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Sonoma)

Welcome to TimersSports

Fantasy Nascar Picks -

Driver Group Game -

A:

Starter - Martin Truex Jr

Bench - Denny Hamlin

Reasons -I think the best driver in grouping A this weekend is Martin Truex Jr. He was the guy who I had planned to start all week long, so this is okay by me. Kevin Harvick is probably right behind him though. Still, I feel pretty good about the 78 car for Sunday's race. He's a top 3!

B:

Starters - Jamie Mac and Ryan Newman

Bench - AJ Dinger and Kurt Busch

Reasons -I never been one to do what everyone else does. In Fantasy Nascar, I had always felt like you have to be different to stand out and win. Sometimes it is good and sometimes it is bad. This weekend, I am taking a swing in B. I am benching AJ Dinger. I do this every year at Sonoma, because he kept finding ways to not finish up front. Usually it is not his fault, but still it is a reocurring issue. I hope the trends keep up.

I feel good about my two starting options in Jamie Mac and Ryan Newman. They both are very capable of solid finishes.

C:

Starter - Alex Bowman

Bench - Chris Buescher

Reasons - Very few people have Alex Bowman on their rosters this weekend. I am probably in a much better position in terms of starts than most, too.He looked good in final practice and qualified well enough for me to use him.

Other good options are David Ragan, Michael McDowell and Chris Buescher. If you are looking to save starts, those are the guys to be looking at. Of the three, I would say that McDowell is the most talented road course racer. While, Buescher probably has the biggest upside due to his equipment level.

Dark Horse - Chase Elliott

Winner -Martin Truex Jr
