3 years agoMartin Truex Jr. comes in a slight +550 favorite for the night race at Richmond on Saturday. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has led the most laps on the 3/4 mile track the last three years (32.5% of the laps overall). Few drivers do this well with the short-track package like Truex Jr. He enjoys a driver rating of nearly 126 with five top-ten results and an average finish of 4.33. The No. 19 car is always near the front on this fast and mostly flat course. With seven drivers at or less than +1000 odds, it will be intriguing to see who can lead the most laps. It should be Truex Jr. but does he go more for the win? That is the question. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
