Despite Team Penske's Great Iowa Speed, Joey Logano Hasn't Had Any
Although he salvaged a not terrible qualifying run (14th) yesterday at Iowa, Joey Logano was more like Joey Slowgano in yesterday's practice, where he ranked next to last only above his fellow Joey Gase. While his teammates Austin Cindric and Ryan Blaney ranked second and third in average speed in practice, Logano only ranked 36th in this category as well, which is puzzling even by his recent standards, since he did finish sixth here last year (although even then he had nothing close to Blaney's speed). You'd think that Team Penske would put some emphasis on this track since setups from Iowa might carry over to Phoenix better than other tracks, but Logano's team seems to be ignoring the track even though the rest of the team is not. On paper, Logano makes sense for DFS play given Penske's apparent speed here, but his personal lack of speed will be a lot to overcome.
