John H. Nemechek Could Gain Positions at Iowa, but Not a Top-Tier DFS Option
John Hunter Nemechek started 34th and finished 26th at Iowa last year for a Legacy Motor Club team that has badly struggled on short tracks. He did win here once in the then-Camping World Truck Series in 2017 and led 35 laps in year's Xfinity Series race before a late race crash here, so he's not totally hapless here but he remains very mediocre in the Cup Series and this has not been one of his best tracks to date as he only qualified 29th on a track where he will very likely get lapped. Although he has better racecraft this year than last and has been much less crash-prone, it's hard to imagine him gaining enough positions to benefit significantly from Place Differential points, and he should probably be avoided especially when considering that regular contenders like Tyler Reddick, Chris Buescher, and Ross Chastain only barely qualified better.
