Christopher Bell Will Start On The Pole At Darlington
1 year agoOn Saturday afternoon, Christopher Bell qualified on the pole for Sunday's Cook Out Southern 500. In eight Cup starts at Darlington, Bell has an average finish of 16th, just two top 10s, and an underwhelming average of 30.53 points on DraftKings. While these lackluster results and the fact that he offers no place differential could justify fading the 28-year-old this weekend, there is a case to be made for him in DFS. Specifically, in the next-gen car, Bell is averaging 45.16 DK points at tracks with banking over 20 degrees (Superspeedways excluded). Given that Darlington has banking that ranges between 23 and 25 degrees, we should expect a good performance from the Joe Gibbs star on Sunday night. That makes it hard to ignore the No. 20 in your lineup builds.
