2 years agoHistory says no but Michael McDowell, even with sanctions, still finished in the top ten last week at the Brickyard. That eighth was more surprising than any other result this season. Can he do it one more time at Michigan? McDowell faces an extremely uphill battle to get in the playoffs. He needs a win and a lot of points. However, the Front Row Motorsports driver could at least move up into the top ten again. Ford has been dominant and maybe the late speed from last year's race is still there at the end here. Testing indicated that for McDowell so stay tuned. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
