In an otherwise mediocre 2024, Alex Bowman's one real bright spot came when he won last year's Chicago Street Course race to lock himself into the playoffs. The win was more the result of a brilliant strategy call by Bowman's crew chief Blake Harris than his own doing, as Bowman was running 9th late in Stage 2 before all the drivers in front of him pitted except for Joey Hand to flip the stage. Bowman then passed Hand shortly after the ensuing restart and ended up not having to pit again when the race was shortened 17 laps due to darkness. Bowman had one of the best runs of his career at Mexico City, where he drove from 29th to 4th despite suffering back pain in the previous race at Michigan. With top tens in both previous road races this season and last year's win, he stands a good chance of beating his 11th-place starting position, but at $8,800, he probably costs too much to start when better drivers are starting worse.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
