Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Has Been Surprisingly Good At Watkins Glen

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. isn't really known for his road-course prowess, but he actually hasn't been too bad at Watkins Glen of late.

Josh Berry Should Be Avoided At Watkins Glen This Weekend

Some drivers simply aren't very good at road-course racing, and that seems to be the case with Stewart-Haas Racing driver Josh Berry. One could argue that nobody has been worse at the road courses this season than Berry. He has walked away with finishes of 32nd or worse in all three races and he has […]

Todd Gilliland Has Major Place-Differential Upside At Watkins Glen

One driver to keep an eye on at Watkins Glen this weekend is Todd Gilliland.

Daniel Suarez Nearly Sweeps Atlanta, Finishes Second On Sunday

There's just something about the "new" Atlanta race track that fits Daniel Suarez well. Since the track was repaved and reconfigured in 2021, Suarez has finished sixth or better in five of the six races, including a pair of second-place results as well as a win over the last three. This past Sunday, Suarez finished […]

Bad Luck Continues For Martin Truex Jr. At Atlanta

The bad-luck streak for Martin Truex Jr. continued on at Atlanta Motor Speedway this past weekend, as the Joe Gibbs Racing driver was collected in a wreck with Ryan Blaney and Chris Buescher on Lap 205 of the Quaker State 400. Truex ultimately finished 35th when it was all said and done, earning just four […]

Denny Hamlin Uses Questionable Strategy At Atlanta And Finishes 24th

When it came to Denny Hamlin and the No. 11 team's in-race strategy at Atlanta this past weekend, it left many people scratching their heads.

Chase Elliott Should Be Strong at Atlanta

Look for Chase Elliott to be strong in Sunday afternoon's Quaker State 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

[…]

Corey Lajoie One of the Highest-Scoring Drivers at Superspeedways

"Potential" has always been a good word to describe Corey Lajoie when it comes to superspeedway racing. Believe it or not, the Spire Motorsports driver has been one of the highest-scoring DFS drivers on this track type over the last few years. That often comes down to Lajoie's ability to avoid wrecks and survive the […]

Ryan Blaney a Risky DFS Pick at Atlanta

Ryan Blaney is likely to be a relatively popular DFS pick at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend, but it doesn't come without some risk. The Team Penske driver qualified second for this weekend's Quaker State 400, and while that is typically a good thing for most races, that's not really the case at superspeedways such […]

Martin Truex Jr Needs to Turns Things Around with Playoffs Starting

If Martin Truex Jr is going to contend for the NASCAR Cup Series Championship in his final full-time season, he's going to need to turn things around starting at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend.

Austin Cindric Could Actually Contend at Atlanta

It's not very often that we consider Austin Cindric as a legitimate threat to win a NASCAR Cup Series race, but when the series stops at a superspeedway track, the Team Penske driver has to enter the conversation. Cindric is one of the top drivers in the series when it comes to drafting tracks, and […]

Justin Haley Deserves Consideration at Atlanta

Don't overlook Justin Haley at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend. Since this track was repaved and reconfigured before the start of the 2022 season, Haley ranks 15th-best in average running position over the five races on the new surface, and in three of those five races he has finished 11th or better. His worst result […]

Denny Hamlin the Obvious DFS Pick at Atlanta

When it comes to making DFS picks at superspeedway tracks, Place Differential is always the most important thing to pay attention to. Therefore, Denny Hamlin is going to be the highest-owned driver for the Quaker State 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Hamlin's No. 11 Toyota had drivetrain issues during qualifying on Saturday, and because of […]

Don't Count Out John Hunter Nemechek at Atlanta

John Hunter Nemechek hasn't been anywhere near good this season, but you can't count him out at superspeedway races.

This weekend, […]

Daniel Suarez Has a Strong Track Record at Atlanta

When it comes to superspeedway racing, track record really doesn't mean a whole lot. However, Atlanta Motor Speedway isn't your "typical superspeedway" like Daytona and Talladega are. You could actually argue that it takes a little more talent to run well at Atlanta due to it being a smaller and less wide track compared to […]

B.J. McLeod Not an Awful Place Differential Option at Atlanta

B.J. McLeod probably isn't going to challenge for the race win at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend, but that doesn't mean you should avoid him entirely in DFS contests. McLeod qualified 36th for this weekend's Quaker State 400 race, which gives him great Place Differential upside in a race that could see plenty of attrition. […]

Cody Ware Has Playability at Atlanta

Typically, Cody Ware isn't thought of as a very good DFS pick, but when the NASCAR Cup Series travels to a superspeedway track, you have to throw conventional wisdom out the window. The draft is a great equalizer in racing, and Ware has shown the ability to avoid wrecks at superspeedways. Just a couple of […]

J.J. Yeley an Interesting Fantasy Play at Atlanta

J.J. Yeley is driving the No. 44 Chevrolet for NY Racing Team this weekend in the Quaker State 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. This will be just the fifth race of the season for this team, and the fourth with Yeley driving the car. His previous finishes this year have been a 34th at Las […]
