Ty Gibbs May Not Be Worth His Salary For COTA DFS Lineups
1 day agoTy Gibbs of Joe Gibbs Racing will start 13th for this week's Echopark Texas Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas. It will be the second time in his Cup career that Gibbs will start outside of the top 10 at the site. In two previous races at COTA, Gibbs has two top-10 finishes, and he led one lap in last year's race at the Texas road course. In 12 road course starts except at Chicago in his Cup career, Gibbs has seven top-20 finishes, including six of his last nine at the track type. In final practice, Gibbs ranked 26th in overall lap averages and displayed top-20 speeds in all other categories. Despite his final practice speeds being underwhelming, Gibbs only has a modest amount of upside from his starting position. Based on his salary ($8,400), Gibbs is best utilized in tournament lineups, but even then, there are more favored DFS options for this week's race at lower price points compared to Gibbs. It is recommended to overall fade the No. 54 Toyota driver this week.
