3 days agoChase Briscoe made it into the "Round Of 12" as the Stewart-Haas Racing car avoided carnage for the most part. However, the Ford starts Texas on Sunday in 30th after a poor qualifying effort which saw him bleeding time in every sector and coming out of turns. His practice session in the Ford was even worse at 31st with an overall that approached 29.8 seconds. Daniel Suarez was in that neighborhood with him but turned in a much better qualifying effort whereas the No. 14 driver just could not find the groove in the resin line. Briscoe is on the bubble as playoff standings reset and his start may be a bad omen for Sunday.

1 month agoChase Briscoe starts from the 14th position on Sunday for the Go Bowling at The Glen. Briscoe and his Stewart-Haas Ford car finished ninth last year and was in the top five after the second stage. What will happen with the No. 14 this time around? Briscoe will have to find some of the speed he could not during practice. It may be there for the race. The driver will not have the luxury of moving up the field like he did last year (started 27th). However, he might be able to inch into the top ten.

2 months agoChase Briscoe qualified 15th for the Federated Auto Parts 400 on Sunday at Richmond Raceway. Briscoe's Ford was quick in sectors on the 0.75-mile track but lost time in the final turn in qualifying. That seemed to impact his five and ten lap intervals as well. No one was sure what the problem was but it is something to watch. Briscoe, from Stewart-Haas Racing, does not have much historical success at Richmond but all year has proven naysayers wrong. He could contend anywhere as Briscoe has shown at Nashville, etc.

2 months agoChase Briscoe will be starting inside the top five as he starts in third place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday. Once again, Briscoe has shown that he is fantastic at road courses, and had another strong showing in qualifications. He is looking for his second win of the season and is showing the NASCAR world that he can win multiple races; his win was not a fluke. Even a top-five finish would be a good showing as he looks to move up in the standings. Briscoe has stats of one win, three top-fives and four top-10 finishes this year, which puts him in 13th place in the standings. Briscoe should be worth a look.

2 months agoChase Briscoe could be a real question mark at Pocono on Sunday. In his only two races, the Ford driver stayed around the 20's position-wise in each appearance. There was not much of a move up or down. However, he is in a faster car now and begins 13th on Sunday. What might happen? That is unknown. Briscoe may just slide back but what if he does not? This is the question with him. Some of the Ford cars and drivers for that matter have just not performed well lately too. One of them definitely has been Briscoe.

3 months agoChase Briscoe is another driver in a strange sort of position for the Sunday race? Does the lack of practice and qualifying hurt or help the Ford driver? That remains to be seen for the Stewart-Haas racer. He starts 14th on Sunday and does have a couple of top-20's in three appearances. Briscoe even led five laps in this span. He might be able to do that on Sunday. In March, the No. 14 Ford was third after Stage 2 before problems impacted his car. He may hold position but could rise even if conditions are right.

3 months agoChase Briscoe will be starting on the front row in second place on Sunday at Road America. For the practice run for Road America, Briscoe was the fastest car, so it looks like he will be a contender to win at Road America. With stats of one win, three top-fives and four top-10 finishes, it puts Briscoe in 11th place in the standings. In NASCAR's last trip to Road America, Briscoe ripped off a top-10 finish with a sixth-place result last season. With past success at Road America, Briscoe will be looking to put it all together and get his second career win.

4 months agoChase Briscoe will be starting in 15th place at Sonoma Raceway on Sunday. Briscoe falls off a little bit after getting the pole for last week's race at Gateway, not even qualifying in the top 10. Briscoe will aim for his second win of the season in the first Sonoma race since 2019. With stats of one win, three top-fives and four top-10s, Briscoe is ninth in the standings. If Briscoe wants to show that he can make a deep run in the playoffs, he needs to start being more consistent, and it can begin on Sunday with a good finish at Sonoma. Briscoe should be treated as a risky play in fantasy.

4 months agoChase Briscoe begins Sunday's Charlotte race from the 15th position. The chances he stays there may be remote. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has limited results at the highest level. However, he never factored much into the Coca-Cola 600 last year. Briscoe wound up 23rd after starting 21st. This year could be more of the same. With middle of the pack speed intervals and loops, Briscoe may find himself off the lead lap again on Sunday. The final stage speed loops outside the top-20 may occur again.

5 months agoChase Briscoe raced his Ford to outside Row 6 for Sunday's race at Kansas. Briscoe has had some interesting adventures on the 1.52-mile track. His No. 14 car does not have the greatest track record at the top level but did win last year in the Xfinity Series. That is something to at least keep in mind. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has had a couple of close calls this year including the one at Bristol Dirt where he nearly won but spun out trying to pass Tyler Reddick for the win. If Briscoe sees more cautions, he has a better chance on Sunday to contend.

5 months agoChase Briscoe and his Stewart-Haas Racing car are in a better position than last year where he started in the 20's and worked his way up the field. He had a +11 and +5 place differential and was in the top-ten late in both races before falling back a lap. Starting 13th on Sunday may help that a bit. If Briscoe and his No. 14 Ford can push early, they may be a factor later. Few expect a win or even a top-five result but Briscoe showed at Bristol that he can contend unexpectedly.

5 months agoChase Briscoe will start the Food City Dirt Race from the fourth position on Sunday night. Briscoe and his Stewart-Haas Racing Ford have been fast from the start here. His early time in the first practice session was only eclipsed by Tyler Reddick. Reddick is believed to have the fastest car going into Sunday. The fastest car does not always win races on the dirt. However, it helps. Briscoe's 20.055 second practice lap combined with his heat run could be a harbinger of things to come on Sunday.

6 months agoChase Briscoe and his Ford begin Saturday evening 19th at Martinsville. The Stewart-Haas Racing car was not grouped in the top cluster with the rest of his teammates. However, the No. 14 was able to maintain most of its early speed later in runs. At the least, Briscoe could move up the field some especially during the longer final stage (220 laps). Between pit strategy, tire wear, and car adjustments, this Ford should be able to move up close to the front barring something unforeseen.

6 months agoChase Briscoe led the way for Stewart-Haas Racing, qualifying in fourth as one of three from the team in the top 10. Briscoe put in a time of 22.658 seconds to finish just ahead of Erik Jones and Martin Truex Jr., getting him the start alongside six-time champion Kyle Busch. The betting odds aren't buying Briscoe as a legitimate contender in the four-spot, putting him at the 12th-best odds at DraftKings sportsbook at plus-1,600. In two career starts at Richmond, Briscoe hasn't managed to finish higher than 16th, but this will be his first time starting towards the front of the pack, so we will see if he can stay close to the top.

6 months agoChase Briscoe is one of those Stewart-Haas Racing drivers that could be a bit of a wildcard at Austin on Sunday. His Ford is usually pretty fast and his typical road start is 22nd. So, 14th is a bit of an improvement. His average result is around six spots higher than his start. That would raise him into the top-10. Briscoe does have three top-ten results in his previous seven road races. The No. 14 car has shown his mettle in the early going this season with a win at Phoenix. What many forget is that Briscoe finished eight spots higher at Fontana (road course) and even led 20 laps before problems surfaced.
