Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman is on the pole for Sunday's Daytona 500. Usually, a pole position is a good thing when it comes to fantasy, as it signals that a driver has a fast car and can lead some early laps. But at superspeedway tracks like Daytona, the threat of a big accident introduces far more risk than usual into the pole winner's race. Add to that that Bowman had issues in his Duel race and you get a scary combination with this 48 team. His ceiling is high, but he's a fairly risky play, though the fact that Bowman has never had a DNF at Daytona does seem to be a nice positive.--Justin Carter - 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

Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman will start third for this week's Cook Out 400 at Martinsville Speedway. Bowman is one of the three Hendrick drivers to start inside the top five for this week's race. In 17 starts at Martinsville, Bowman has one win, five top-10 finishes, and an average finish of 18.5. In six races so far this season, Bowman leads all drivers with five top-10 finishes and has led in four different Cup events. In practice, Bowman ranked 11th in overall lap averages while failing to rank in the top 10 in all other categories on speed. Bowman has been consistent like no other driver this season, meaning that he is worth at least a small number of exposure in DFS lineups, but works best in tournaments due to low upside and his Martinsville history being decent at best.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
