Kyle Busch Facing a Must-Win Situation at Daytona

If Kyle Busch is going to make the Playoffs this season, he needs to get the win in Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona. The bad news is, that's a lot more difficult than just going out there and having the best car. The good news is, however, that Busch has had one […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Could Be a Risky Pick at Daytona

The NASCAR Cup Series is at a superspeedway this weekend, which means we have to keep an eye on Ricky Stenhouse Jr. The 2023 Daytona 500 champion also went to victory lane at Talladega last fall, as this is the track type where Stenhouse tends to perform his best. This weekend, he will start from […]

Tyler Reddick Needs to Avoid Disaster at Daytona

There are still two spots up for grabs in this year's Cup Series Playoffs field, and while it is very likely that Tyler Reddick will point his way into the postseason, nothing is guaranteed.

Don't Count Out Bubba Wallace at Daytona

Don't be surprised if Bubba Wallace is in contention for the win at Daytona International Speedway this weekend. The 23XI Racing driver is a strong superspeedway talent, and just last season he posted finishes of fifth and sixth in the two races at this track. Overall, Bubba has the second-best average finish (13.0) among active […]

Alex Bowman Should Be Avoided in DFS This Weekend at Daytona

Alex Bowman has a very strong track record at superspeedways, but that doesn't mean he's a good pick in DFS this weekend at Daytona. Over the last 13 races at Daytona and Talladega, Bowman has a series-leading average finish of 11.6 with seven top-10 finishes, including a sixth-place finish in this year's Daytona 500. However, […]

Josh Berry Has Struggled on Superspeedways

It's probably a good thing that Josh Berry is already locked into this year's Playoffs, because the Wood Brothers Racing driver has struggled mightily at Daytona and Talladega during his Cup Series career.

Ty Gibbs Has One Final Chance to Make Playoffs

If Ty Gibbs is going to make the NASCAR Cup Series postseason for the second year in a row, he's going to have to pull off a win in Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver is currently 17th in the points standings but is too far […]

Erik Jones a Viable Option in DFS This Weekend at Daytona

Erik Jones will roll off the starting grid from 26th place in his No. 43 Toyota for Legacy Motor Club on Saturday night at Daytona International Speedway, and DFS managers should definitely be targeting him in their lineups.

John Hunter Nemechek Hoping to Build on Daytona Success

If you were to guess which active NASCAR Cup Series driver has the best average finish at Daytona International Speedway, it would probably take you a while to get to John Hunter Nemechek.

Shane van Gisbergen Has Been Pretty Bad at Superspeedway Races

Getting good finishes at superspeedway race tracks involves quite a bit of luck, and Shane van Gisbergen hasn't had much at Daytona and Talladega since joining the Cup Series. In five races at these two tracks, SVG has ended up 28th or worse four times, with his only decent finish being a 15th-place result in […]

Ty Dillon Has Been Strong and Steady at Daytona in Next Gen Era

Don't Overlook Riley Herbst This Weekend at Daytona

When it comes to underdogs or sleepers in this weekend's race at Daytona International Speedway, don't overlook 23XI Racing driver Riley Herbst. Remember, Herbst was running in fifth on the final lap of this year's Daytona 500 but spun out and ended up finishing 17th. He had the 13th-best average running position in that race. […]

Could Cody Ware Actually Win at Daytona?

Can Ryan Blaney Finally Break Through at Richmond?

Richmond Raceway has been an interesting track for Ryan Blaney, and not in a good way. In 17 career starts at "The Action Track," Blaney has just three top-10 finishes to his credit and has never ended up better than seventh. Last year, he had a typical race at this track and both started and […]

Joey Logano Will Start Last at Richmond After Practice Trouble

Joey Logano is one of the best at Richmond Raceway, as the Team Penske driver is a two-time winner at the track and would have grabbed a third victory here last season if Austin Dillon didn't dump him on the final lap. Additionally, Logano is a constant top 10 threat, as he has finished inside […]

Ryan Preece on Pole at Richmond as Playoff Deadline Looms Closer

Ryan Preece is on the pole for Saturday night's Cook Out 400, and with just two races left until the cutoff for this year's Playoffs, he will need to have a major performance if he wants to feel good about his postseason chances next weekend at Daytona. Of course, a win at Richmond would lock […]

Richmond Raceway has been a bit of a struggle for Chase Briscoe throughout his career.
