Riley Herbst of 23XI Racing will start 25th after qualifying for Sunday's Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Herbst is making his first Cup Series start at Indianapolis in this week's race. In his only Xfinity Series start at Indy's oval track, Herbst led 30 laps and won the race. Through 21 Cup races so far this season, the No. 35 Toyota driver has six top-20 finishes and an average finish of 25.4. In practice for this week's race, Herbst ranked 33rd in overall lap averages and 35th in five consecutive lap averages. Despite his solid equipment, low salary, and his past Xfinity win, Herbst is a driver who is hard to recommend for DFS over other drivers in this week's race due to his slow practice speeds, lack of Cup experience on this track, and lower upside compared to others in his salary range.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
