William Byron Starts From Middle At Bristol
3 years agoWilliam Byron begins his Bristol dirt race from the 19th spot on Sunday night. For what it is worth, Byron managed a sixth-place result last year in spite of not leading a single lap. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing car did not even truly contended but the No. 24 Chevy survived. This lends some credence to a stack the back strategy for DFS. The fourth quickest Hendrick has been the most consistent over the last two years. Byron did not lose much time (a tenth of a second) in his intermediate lap runs. He did not attempt any long (20 or 30-lap) runs but that may not be much of a concern. His place differential potential makes him a good DFS possibility.
