Aug 9, 2026, 2:16 PM ET

Carson Hocevar of Spire Motorsports is starting from the 18th position in this week's Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway. Hocevar continues a streak of three straight Iowa Cup races with a top-20 starting position. In his previous two races at the site, Hocevar has two top-15 finishes with a best finish of eighth, coming from last year's race. After 22 races so far this season, Hocevar has one win, nine top-10 finishes, and an average finish of 14.1. In practice for this week's Cup race, Hocevar ranked as high as 15th in 15 consecutive lap averages. Hocevar is a driver whose equipment could carry him to a top-15 finish, making him a solid DFS option for all formats this week.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
