Joey Logano Likely To Finish Better Than He Runs
1 year agoHaving failed to make the Round of 12 in the NASCAR Cup Series playoffs, Joey Logano has nothing to lose in tomorrow's Charlotte ROVAL event. Logano has both run and finished better than both of his Penske teammates Austin Cindric and Ryan Blaney on road courses this year, but all have been relatively mediocre. Logano ranks only 16th in road course speed this year with a barely above average speed percentile of 53.40%, but that is shockingly better than his ranking in overall speed this year in his limp championship defense. In all three of the road course races he finished on the lead lap, he did finish better than his average running position, arguably indicating he was good at avoiding wrecks. Don't be surprised if he gets a top ten.
