Should DFS Managers Roster John Hunter Nemechek At Las Vegas?
2 months agoJohn Hunter Nemechek obtained a starting position of 26th for this week's Cup Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the South Point 400. This is a higher start position than the March race at the site where he started 27th. In three previous starts at Las Vegas, Nemechek has one top-20 finish but captured positive Place Differential three times. Through 32 races this season, Nemechek has six top-20 finishes and an average finish of 25.6. At 1.5-mile Intermediate tracks this year, Nemechek has three finishes with positive PD and two finishes of 22nd or better. In practice, Nemechek ranked 16th in five consecutive lap averages, 28th in 10 consecutive lap averages, and 13th in overall lap averages. Although Nemechek has upside based on his starting position, Nemechek's finishes at Intermediate tracks make him difficult to recommend outside of cash lineups, especially with other drivers who have more upside.
