Chris Buescher May Have Qualified Too Well to Start for DFS
Despite missing the playoffs, Chris Buescher remains a veritable top-10 machine, as his 14 top-10 finishes rank tied for second in the Cup Series, and he has the fifth-best average finish. Gateway has not been one of his better tracks, though, perhaps because he missed the inaugural race in 2022 due to testing positive for COVID-19, which meant he had to play catchup in future seasons when his contemporaries had an extra year of experience. Buescher's finishes of 12th and 14th were decent, but hardly earth-shattering, although he did gain many positions from his qualifying positions. This year, as usual, Buescher qualified better, as he starts 11th. But despite the improved qualifying, he seems much slower in races, so he is probably unlikely to either dominate enough or gain enough positions for DFS consideration since he'll probably finish right around where he starts.
