We're on to the sixth and final superspeedway race of the season, as the Round of 12 in the playoffs continues with the YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday afternoon. Talladega is one of the larger drafting superspeedways, but the DFS strategies […]

Justin Haley An Easy DFS Pick After Qualifying 35th At Talladega

Justin Haley has a bunch of place-differential upside this weekend in the YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, and because of that, the Spire Motorsports driver will likely be one of the highest-owned on the DFS slate. Haley qualified back in 35th for this weekend's race (out of 40 drivers). However, the question is, will he […]

Kyle Busch One Of The Best At Superspeedways In Next Gen

Don't be surprised if Kyle Busch runs up front (and finishes there as well) in Sunday's YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. "Rowdy" has the best average running position (12.61) as well as the best average finish (12.0) at Daytona and Talladega since the Next Gen era has started, with a total of 11 races included […]

Todd Gilliland Is Unplayable In DFS At Talladega

Todd Gilliland has typically been a DFS sleeper pick when the NASCAR Cup Series visits a drafting superspeedway, but that has always been when he qualified in the back half of the field. Now that Front Row Motorsports has completely figured out qualifying on the drafting tracks, though, that has made Todd Gilliland pretty much […]

Bubba Wallace Has Disappointed In Almost All Talladega Starts

When the NASCAR Cup Series heads to a drafting superspeedway such as Daytona or Talladega, many people look toward Bubba Wallace as a race-winning contender. However, more often than not, Bubba disappoints--especially at Talladega. Although he does have a win here (in a rain-shortened race in 2021), that is Wallace's only finish better than 14th […]

Beware Of William Byron’s Possible Strategy Downfall At Talladega

William Byron and his No. 24 Chevrolet have been one on the best at superspeedways of late, as the Hendrick Motorsports driver has finished eighth or better in five of the last six races on this track type, including grabbing a win in this year's season-opening Daytona 500. However, a strategy call may hinder Byron's […]

Ryan Blaney Should Be A Contender At Talladega

Look for Ryan Blaney and his No. 12 Ford for Team Penske to be strong at Talladega in the YellaWood 500 this weekend. Blaney is a constant front runner at the drafting superspeedways, as evidenced by his average finish of 14.36 at Daytona and Talladega since the debut of the Next Gen car. That average […]

Josh Berry Is A Sleeper At Talladega This Weekend

Josh Berry doesn't have the strongest track record at drafting superspeedways in the Cup Series, but that doesn't mean you should stay away from him in DFS contests. Berry has made three Cup Series starts at Daytona and has yet to finish better than 22nd, and at Talladega, he has one start with a result […]

Talladega-2 NASCAR Algorithm-Predicted Finishing Order (Premium Content)

All other NASCAR Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. The sixth and final superspeedway race of the season, as the YellaWood 500 continues the Round of 12 at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday afternoon. We have already had one race at Talladega this season as well as two events at both Daytona and […]

Daniel Hemric Has Been Great At Superspeedways This Season

The NASCAR Cup Series is at Talladega Superspeedway this weekend, which means pretty much any driver in the field could end up in contention at the end. That means that we have the rare opportunity to use Daniel Hemric in Fantasy NASCAR contests as well, since the cars are on a more even playing field. […]

Austin Cindric Runs Up Front At Superspeedways But Finishes Are Question Marks

Keep an eye on Austin Cindric in this weekend's YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. The Team Penske driver has been one of the strongest drivers on this track type this season, and his average running position (10.18) in the three races at Daytona and Talladega is the best among all Cup Series drivers. In the […]

Anthony Alfredo Has Never Finished Worse Than 12th At Talladega

The sample size is small, but Anthony Alfredo has been very good at Talladega Superspeedway. "Fast Pasta" made his first career start at this track back in the spring of 2021, coming home with a 12th-place finish for Front Row Motorsports in their No. 38 Ford. He then posted a 10th-place result in the fall […]

Shane van Gisbergen Needs Other Drivers To Trust Him This Time At Talladega

Shane van Gisbergen will be making another Cup Series start this weekend, as the Xfinity Series star will pilot the No. 16 Chevrolet for Kaulig Racing in Sunday afternoon's YellaWood 500. SVG qualified 17th for this weekend's race, which means he has decent (but not high) upside for Place Differential points in DFS contests. However, […]

Corey Lajoie Excels At Tracks Like Talladega

Whenever the NASCAR Cup Series heads to a superspeedway track, Corey Lajoie should be in consideration for DFS players. The reason? He has excelled at this track type in the past by avoiding the carnage, as Lajoie has six finishes of 16th or better in 11 races in the Next Gen era. At Talladega specifically, […]

Cody Ware Relies On Chaos To Finish Well At Superspeedways

Cody Ware typically isn't a viable option in Fantasy NASCAR, but when the series stops at a superspeedway track, he typically becomes a decent option. The reason why is because superspeedways are wildly unpredictable, and drivers like Ware have as good of chance as anybody to get a good finish--if they can avoid the chaos. […]

Talladega-2 NASCAR Qualifying Results and Starting Lineup

On Saturday afternoon, the NASCAR Cup Series held the qualifying session for this weekend's YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, the fifth race of this year's postseason and the second one for the Round of 12. The qualifying session consisted of two rounds. All 40 cars in the field attempted a lap in the first round, […]

All other NASCAR Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. After another profitable betting card at Kansas last weekend, we head to Talladega Superspeedway and the YellaWood 500 for the second race in the Round of 12.

Ross Chastain "Disrupts" At Kansas And Goes To Victory Lane

Ross Chastain sure likes to disrupt the party in the playoffs. Last year, Chastain went out and won the Championship race at Phoenix despite being eliminated from the postseason, and this past Sunday at Kansas Speedway, he did the same thing: grabbed the checkered flag despite missing out on the playoffs entirely. Chastain started 20th […]

Tyler Reddick On The Outside Looking In After Kansas Dud

Just one race in to the Round of 12, and the regular season points champion, Tyler Reddick, is already on the outside looking in for the Round of 8. Kansas Speedway has been a very strong track for Reddick in the past, but he struggled in both races there this season, particularly this past weekend, […]

Martin Truex Jr: "Just Ran Out of Time" At Kansas

The bad finish streak by Martin Truex Jr. is finally over. After eight straight races with results of 20th or worse, Truex came home with a third-place finish in Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. He also led five laps and looked to be in contention for the win, as the No. 19 Toyota […]

Ty Gibbs Scores Top-Five Finish At Kansas

Ty Gibbs had one of the strongest cars in Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 and ended up with a solid fifth-place finish when it was all said and done. "We had a really fast Monster Energy Camry. I feel like we were pretty solid and in the top five most of the day. Just needed a […]

Alex Bowman Wins Stage, Has Big Points Day At Kansas

It was a good Sunday for Alex Bowman in the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway, as the Hendrick Motorsports driver crossed the finish line in sixth place and collected 43 points to kick off the Round of 12. He also got his first stage win of the season by taking the green and white […]

NASCAR Playoffs: Round Two - All 12 Driver Outlooks and Preview

And then there were 12... with the conclusion of the night race at Bristol this past weekend, NASCAR's playoffs field got smaller, as four drivers--Ty Gibbs, Brad Keselowski, Martin Truex, Jr, and Harrison Burton--were all eliminated from Championship contention. Now we start a whole new round, and it kicks off this weekend at Kansas Speedway--the […]

Kyle Larson the Favorite to Win Kansas Despite Qualifying 11th

Even though he failed to make the final round of qualifying on Saturday, Kyle Larson is still the favorite to win this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400. And when you look at his track record at Kansas Speedway, can you really blame the bookmakers for that? Larson is the most recent winner at Kansas and has […]

Ty Gibbs Could Contend at Kansas

Keep an eye on Ty Gibbs in this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has shown top-five potential in almost all intermediate track races this season, and although sometimes the finishes haven't came along with that speed, it's never very smart to bet against a fast car. This weekend […]

Can Martin Truex Jr Finally Get a Good Finish This Weekend?

This is getting a little ridiculous. With his 24th-place finish at Bristol last weekend, Martin Truex Jr now has eight straight finishes of 20th or worse in Cup Series action. He hasn't had a top five finish since all the way back in May which was at, ironically, Kansas Speedway--the same track the Cup Series […]

Joey Logano Has Top 10 Potential at Kansas

Look for Joey Logano to compete for a top-10 finish at Kansas Speedway this weekend. The Team Penske driver ended up finishing 34th here back in the spring, but that was due to flat tires after a spin as opposed to actually being that slow in the race. Looking at the three other races on […]

Noah Gragson Could Have a Great Day at Kansas

Don't sleep on Noah Gragson in this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver finished ninth here in the first race this season and also ended up with a sixth-place finish at Las Vegas earlier this year, which is the sister track to Kansas. As far as practice speeds go, Gragson's […]

Alex Bowman is Very Good at Kansas

Don't be surprised if Alex Bowman has a great race at Kansas Speedway this weekend. The Hendrick Motorsports driver has definitely taken a liking to this track, and in the Next Gen era, he has never finished outside of the top 10 in four races at the venue. Even before the Next Gen car was […]
