Although Bubba Wallace narrowly missed the playoffs after Chase Briscoe's win in last week's Southern 500, drafting tracks tend to be his best track type. However, he tends to be better at Daytona and Talladega than at Atlanta, where he never earned a top ten finish until this year's winter race when he finished fifth. The Toyotas have consistently had mediocre speed in qualifying on drafting tracks this year, and this continued with Wallace qualifying 24th for today's race. He has finished fifth or sixth in all three races where he didn't crash, so he should as usual be expected to earn a top ten if he finishes. Now that he no longer has to points race since he missed the playoffs, he might take risks that he was unwilling to earlier in the season, but given his past history, he's probably more likely to win at Talladega.--Sean Wrona - RotoBallerRead More News
