Brad Keselowski a Pre-Race Favorite at Iowa
6 months agoBrad Keselowski qualified fifth for tonight's Iowa Corn 350 and enters as one of the prerace favorites. Although you can't really predict this race based on past results since the track was resurfaced, Keselowski has proven to be a master of the track in the Xfinity Series with three wins and 332 laps led and he's tended to have many of his best races in recent years at similar tracks and/or tracks with abrasive surfaces such as Bristol, Richmond, and Darlington. Couple that with his recent hot streak where he has had five top-three finishes in the last eight races and it's very easy to foresee Keselowski being a favorite to win tonight. The one concern is that he has run very consistently this season but not led many laps, which is usually necessary to win, but there's a strong chance he'll lead more than usual tonight.
