On Saturday morning, Alex Bowman qualified 23rd for the Pennzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube. After a disappointing race last weekend at Atlanta, a trip to Las Vegas Motor Speedway has got to get the Hendrick Motorsports star excited, as this is a track he has performed well at in recent years. Over his last three appearances in Sin City, Bowman has a victory, a third-place finish, and one DNF, which was the result of a crash. Even with this crash, which resulted in him finishing in 35th place, he is averaging 40.09 points on DraftKings and has appeared in the optimal lineup twice. Given his history at this track, the fact that he has just the 15th-highest salary on DraftKings ($8,100), and that his starting position offers place differential upside, the No. 48 should be treated as a core play in DFS this weekend. --Adam Erhardt - RotoBaller

Alex Bowman qualified 18th at Talladega yesterday, which is consistent with his relatively bland performance there as this marks his seventh consecutive starting position outside the top ten after six consecutive top ten starts before that. While qualifying certainly doesn't matter there and he has had laps in every other race at Talladega, he isn't likely to be one of the dominant drivers in the race even with his recent uptick in speed and he is usually better at Daytona. He also qualified slightly too well to be a top contender for DFS teams when considering there are several better drivers who started behind him and are likely to finish ahead of him. All three of his Hendrick Motorsports teammates are likely better options.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

In a virtual repeat of last year's Bristol Night Race, Alex Bowman won the pole for Sunday's race at Bristol before Kyle Larson passed him early in Stage 1 and led the rest of the race, with the exception of pit-stop exchanges. The difference is Bowman had an engine failure in Sunday's race. However, Bowman's race was still very strong, as he ran in the top five for nearly the entirety of the first 285 laps and was running third when his engine went sour. He tried to nurse it home but eventually retired from the race after 343 laps. Although Bowman has now had a pretty unlucky season, he still sits 46 points above the playoff cut line and he's shown more speed this year than he has at any point since his injury at Texas in 2022. He's already passed his laps-led total from each of the past two years.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

For the second straight time at Bristol Motor Speedway, Alex Bowman will lead the field to the green. The driver of the No. 48 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports turned a lap of 128.675 mph (14.912 second) during qualifying on Saturday afternoon, beating out Ricky Stenhouse Jr for the pole position by 0.013 seconds. Bowman was last on the pole at Bristol in the fall race last year, where he led 34 laps before turning the lead over the eventual race-winner (and teammate) Kyle Larson. Bowman walked away with a ninth-place finish in that race, making it two straight top-10 results for him at Bristol Motor Speedway. This weekend, Bowman looked to be one of the strongest on the long runs in practice, which should pay dividends during the race on Sunday. He ranked second-best in 20-, 25-, and 30-lap average, and he has the best track position to start the Food City 500 with. At just $8,000 on DraftKings, Bowman looks to be a very strong DFS pick to grab some early dominator FPTS and challenge for (at least) a top-10 finish when it's all said and done. When asked about the race after qualifying and any potential tire issues, Bowman replied, "I love tire wear races, so I'm stoked for tomorrow."--Jordan McAbee

Starting in the 33rd position for this week's Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway is Alex Bowman of Hendrick Motorsports. Bowman is the only Hendrick driver to qualify outside of the top 20 for this week's race. In 14 starts at Darlington, Bowman has eight top-20 finishes, including two top-10 finishes within his last four appearances at the site. After seven races wrapped up in the 2025 season, Bowman has five top-10 finishes and an average finish of 12.0. In practice, Bowman ranked 13th in overall lap averages while ranking 30th in 15 consecutive lap averages. Although Bowman's practice speeds weren't the greatest, he is still in top-notch Hendrick equipment and has incredibly high upside, making him worth rostering in all DFS formats.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
