Bristol One of Justin Haley's Few Recent Bright Spots

Despite Poor Qualifying Run, Daniel Suarez Might Not Be a Great Choice for Place Differential Points
September 13, 2025
Bristol is one of the few tracks where Justin Haley tends to look decent. In this spring's race, Haley finished only 13th but ran in the top five quite a bit in the first stage and had the ninth best driver rating of 97.1. The Spire Motorsports cars tend to be consistently fast here as well. While that has been mostly reflected by their emerging star Carson Hocevar, even Corey LaJoie was running just outside the top ten when he crashed in his last race for Spire before Haley replaced him. Starting 17th, it's not hard to see Haley potentially finishing in the top ten tonight although he never has here before, but even if he does, he won't gain that many points since he qualified in the top half of the grid and he probably won't score much in the way of Place Differential, lap leader, or fastest lap points, so he's a somewhat risky proposition.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
