It was a Ford party during qualifying at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Saturday, and Chris Buescher was definitely invited. Fords took the first 8 starting spots for Sunday's Ambetter Health 400 and Buescher will start the race from the 7th place--the same spot that he ended up finishing in last year's first Atlanta race. Now that this track races more like a superspeedway, Buescher is definitely someone to keep an eye on this Sunday. He led the 2nd-most laps at Daytona earlier this year, which is also the last time that Buescher has finished inside the top 10. Since then, he's ended up 13th at Fontana, 21st at Las Vegas, and 15th last weekend at Phoenix. --Jordan McAbee

While Chris Buescher has seemed to maintain his consistency of recent seasons, he and RFK Racing in general have seemed to lose a lot of speed as he has not led a lap in the first nine races of 2025. Even though he qualified sixth at Talladega, a track which is traditionally conducive to a lot of lead changes, don't expect that trend to necessarily change today as he also qualified sixth for the Daytona 500 and never led that race. He qualified well enough that he should likely be avoided for DFS unless you think he is likely to dominate the race and earn a lot of lap leader points. Since he has a Ford and has won at Daytona, that's not impossible but the RFK Fords have never seemed to have as much speed as the Penske or even Front Row Motorsports Fords on drafting tracks of late and he has historically tended to be better at Daytona than Talladega.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

Chris Buescher ($8,300 on DraftKings this weekend) should be a strong DFS play for Sunday's Food City 500 race. The Roush-Fenway Keselowski Racing driver has been one of the best in the Next Gen era at this track, with a win and three top-10 finishes over the four races that the Cup Series has ran here with this car. His only "bad" race was a 14th-place effort last fall. As far as this weekend goes Buescher qualified back in 24th for Sunday's race, but that 's pretty normal for him considering his average starting position in the Next Gen era is 22.75. That means Place Differential points on DraftKings, and Buescher has been one of the best at that here at Bristol. Look for the No. 17 Ford to be in contention for yet another top-10 finish this weekend. Buescher is currently tied for the series lead with five top-10 results through the first eight races of the season. --Jordan McAbee

Chris Buescher and his Roush-Fenway Keselowski Racing team had yet another solid race weekend at Darlington, as the No. 17 Ford crossed the finish line in sixth place when the Goodyear 400 was all said and done. It was Buescher's fifth top-10 finish through the first eight races this year, and it kept him in 11th place in the points standings. This was also another strong showing for Buescher at Darlington specifically, as he now has four top-10 finishes over the last five races there. After the race was over on Sunday, the driver remarked, "We had a lot of speed today. Once that caution fell, it just trapped us. We spent the rest of the race trying to get that track position back. We got it at the end. We were able to move forward a little more on that final restart, but overall, a good day."--Jordan McAbee

Although he couldn't have known it at the time, Chris Buescher's and Tyler Reddick's slight contact while battling for the lead in last year's spring Darlington race arguably knocked Buescher out of the playoffs since he was leading with nine laps left when Reddick cut his tire and was relegated to a 30th-place finish. The 33 points he lost were far greater than his seven-point deficit to Martin Truex Jr. for the last playoff spot, so Buescher will likely be intensely motivated to right last year's wrong. The issue is that even though he remains just as consistent as ever, the RFK Racing cars seem to be significantly slower and hardly factor for the lead at all. However, Buescher's usually mediocre teammate Ryan Preece qualified second, so it wouldn't be shocking if he rivals last year's speed. Whether he has DFS value largely depends on whether he leads or not, but he probably won't.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
