Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy F1 Lineup Picks
After a few weeks off, Formula 1 is back this week with the Belgian Grand Prix. And it's set up to be a weird one, though hopefully not as weird as last year's rain-soaked trip to Belgium that featured no actual on-track racing. Many good cars have grid penalties this week, which means that we... Read More

Ryan Blaney Looks For Win One At Daytona
Ryan Blaney still has not won a race this season. It seems hard to believe but the Team Penske driver has done everything but win. That being said, the No. 12 Ford starts 16th which is not an issue. Blaney does have three top-fives, four top-tens, and a win in his last seven Daytona appearances.... Read More
Austin Cindric In New Territory On Saturday Night
Austin Cindric has experienced the highest of highs at Daytona as he won the Daytona 500 this year. He runs very well on the 2.5-mile track. In 2021, he was running close to the front before an accident ruined his day. Cindric still finished 15th after starting 39th. However, the Team Penske driver has never... Read More
Martin Truex Jr. On Points Watch For Daytona
Martin Truex Jr. (starts 13th) got a bit of a boost when Kurt Busch was announced that he would be out of the playoffs. However, that race is far from over as Daytona beckons for the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing driver. If there are no new winners, Truex Jr. clinches a playoff spot. If... Read More
Ross Chastain Begins 12th At Daytona On Saturday
Ross Chastain did not have to qualify at Daytona this weekend and that probably helps. The TrackHouse Racing driver has had some issues lately. The No. 1 driver's last top ten was an eighth at New Hampshire. Since then, it has been a mix of DNF's, car issues, and worse. He does tend to like... Read More
Erik Jones Could Struggle At Daytona
Erik Jones probably did not want to see Daytona on the schedule now. He finished 29th at the Daytona 500 to start the season and often has run into some bad luck with car issues and wrecks on the 2.5-mile track. The Petty GMS Motorsports driver is right on the bad side of the bubble... Read More
Alex Bowman Rounds Out Top Ten For Daytona
Alex Bowman does have two top tens in his last seven races at Daytona. However, more often than not, it has been a bit of a struggle. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has had some issues lately. The No. 48 car has not cracked the top five since way back at Dover. His last top... Read More
Michael McDowell Starts Ninth At Daytona
Michael McDowell's greatest moment of triumph was on this very track. He won the 2021 Daytona 500 by leading the lap that mattered. However, the Front Row Motorsports driver does tend to perform well on the 2.5-mile course. He did finish seventh in this year's Daytona 500. That goes along with top-tens at Darlington and... Read More
Chris Buescher Has One Last Shot At Daytona
Chris, or Christopher, Buescher has one last shot at Daytona to make the playoffs. This goes for several drivers obviously. However, Buescher will begin eighth on Saturday night with a bit of success historically on courses like this superspeedway. The RFK Racing driver is in better form too with three top-tens in his last four... Read More
Kevin Harvick In Seventh Heaven As Playoff Chase Beckons
Kevin Harvick and his Stewart-Haas Racing Ford went from missing the playoffs to two wins in the span of a couple weeks. The No. 4 car will be inside Row 4 for the Coke Sugar Zero 400 (seventh). Harvick managed to stay around the top-ten recently at Atlanta which could help some at Daytona. Though... Read More
Tyler Reddick Looks To Bounce Back At Daytona
Tyler Reddick has been great on road courses lately but the Richard Childress Racing driver has been less so elsewhere. He has the two wins at Indianapolis and Road America plus a seventh at Watkins Glen. However, a spattering of outside top-20 results on courses with only right turns is a little concerning. Other than... Read More
Christopher Bell Begins Fifth At Daytona Saturday
Christopher Bell has been one of the most consistent drivers from Joe Gibbs Racing all season. On Saturday night, he starts the Coke Zero Sugar 400 from the fifth position. Bell and his No. 20 car have just one win on the season but 14 top-ten results along with seven top-fives. Bell has five top-12... Read More
Daniel Suarez Gets Boosted To Fourth For Daytona
Daniel Suarez, and not Ross Chastain, will be the highest placed TrackHouse Racing driver to start the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on Saturday night. Suarez and his No. 99 car will start fourth based on a NASCAR formula that emphasized recent results. Qualifying just was never in the cards after waves of thunderstorms on Friday.... Read More
Joey Logano Begins Daytona Third On Saturday
Saturday nights are meant for racing and Joey Logano knows this well. The Team Penske driver hopes to snag win number three on the season at Daytona. He begins third and unlike previous years with "restrictor plate" racing, the Next-Gen car is a bit different. Keep the car on the track is more of a... Read More
Chase Elliott Starts Outside Row One Saturday
Chase Elliott gets a nice boost starting second for Saturday's Coke Zero Sugar 400 from Daytona. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver got nudged off line narrowly by Kyle Larson just missing out on a win at Watkins Glen. The good news is that he still finished fourth. Elliott has produced points consistently all year with... Read More
Kyle Larson Wins Pole For Daytona Without Driving
Kyle Larson wins the pole for the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on Saturday night without practice or qualifying. Thunderstorms washed out the ability to do much of anything on Friday. Based on a formula that placed emphasis on last week's race results, Hendrick Motorsports benefitted quite well. The 1st, 2nd, and 10th place cars are... Read More
NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Wawa 250 at Daytona (8/26/22)
The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Daytona on Friday night in what should be the best chance left for a surprise driver to win his way into the playoffs.

Kyle Busch Qualifies 10th At Watkins Glen
Kyle Busch had the only Toyota to qualify for the last round of qualifying. He ended up tenth suffering from engine issues which seemed to be a theme. Toyota had just two cars in the top-20 (Ty Gibbs - 16th). The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has had a "hard as hell" year and the lack... Read More
Daniel Suarez Begins Ninth At Watkins Glen
Daniel Suarez got to the final round of qualifying and looked like his TrackHouse Racing car could wind up in the top five. That did not materialize as Suarez fell more than a second off the pace of Kyle Larson. Suarez's No. 99 car started slow and never truly recovered bleeding time on every turn.... Read More
Austin Cindric Fades A Bit Late In Qualifying Saturday
Austin Cindric faded a little later in his qualifying lap on Saturday as he lost even more time compared to Chris Buescher. The Team Penske driver and his No. 2 car dropped six to seven tenths of a second over the final four turns. It felt like he was a little late particularly in turns... Read More
Chris Buescher Starts Seventh At Watkins Glen
For now, we will still call him Chris Buescher (sorry Dale Jr.). That being said, the Ford driver begins seventh but did drop about a half second on the second half of his qualifying lap Saturday. That was a bit disappointing because it looked like he might end up on Row 1 at first. Buescher... Read More
AJ Allmendinger Can Be A Ringer At Watkins Glen
One of the real wild cards for the race at Watkins Glen may just be AJ Allmendinger. The No. 16 Chevy driver from Kaulig Racing starts sixth and again the racers from the top six positions often have the best chance to win over the past decade or so at The Glen. That said, Allmendinger... Read More
Tyler Reddick Right Where He Wants To Be
Tyler Reddick has won two road courses this year. He finished tenth in his only appearance at Watkins Glen last year. With a faster race car on courses with left and right turns, Reddick has been even more formidable. He won at Indianapolis while leading 38 laps. Reddick is capable of holding most anyone off... Read More
William Byron Steams Into Fourth In Qualifying
Putting aside what happened later on Saturday, William Byron's No. 24 looked great in qualifying for Watkins Glen. He will start fourth for the Go Bowling at The Glen and could be a major factor in a race in what feels like months. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver does have four top-12 results in his... Read More
Michael McDowell Blazing His Own Trail In Qualifying
Michael McDowell with the Next-Gen car on road courses has been surprisingly good. Lately, he has run well at quite a few tracks.
