Kyle Larson the Favorite to Win at Dover Despite Qualifying 21st

Kyle Larson has some work to do at Dover this weekend if he wants to end up in victory lane because the No. 5 Chevrolet was just mediocre during qualifying on Saturday.

Chase Elliott a Core DFS Play at Dover

Dover Motor Speedway is one of the best tracks on the circuit for Chase Elliott, as the Hendrick Motorsports driver has posted top-five finishes there in 10 of his 13 career starts, including two wins (in 2018 and 2022).

Chris Buescher Has DFS Place Differential Upside at Dover

Dover Motor Speedway has been a very good race track for Chris Buescher recently, as he has the fourth-best average running position (7.83) at this track over the last two races in the Next Gen car.

Ross Chastain Has Been One of Best at Dover in Next Gen Era

Ross Chastain has been one of the fastest drivers at Dover Motor Speedway in the Next Gen era, and that looks to be the case once again this weekend.
