NASCAR Rankings Analysis
Kyle Larson hasn't been his dominant self for the past couple of races, but his overall track record keeps him ranked first for me this week.
Larson starts 10th, offering some decent place differential points. The winner of four races this season, Larson has an average finish of 12.9 in his career at Loudon, with five top 10s in 10 races. Four of those top 10s were top fives though, including three finishes of second here. Despite only leading 16 laps ever at the track, you have to think that Larson in a Hendrick car is capable of dominating this thing. I mean...three seconds!
If you want to pivot to a different dominator pick, Kyle Busch is right there. He starts first, so could easily lead a bunch of laps at the beginning of this race. Busch has won here three times, including a win in 2017 in which he led 187 laps.
In fact, Busch has led 100-plus laps here four times, with three of those coming since 2016. He finished 38th here last year, but led laps in six consecutive races here before that. Have to consider Busch a favorite.
In terms of some drivers who are great values this week, I have Christopher Bell as a top 10 play. His inconsistency has meant that I usually wouldn't play Bell much when he has a top 10 starting position, but he's been so good here at Loudon.
Bell's only Cup start here resulted in just a 28th place finish last year, but in three Xfinity starts at the track, Bell has three wins. Saturday, he made his first Xfinity start of the season and led 151 of 200 laps. In 2019, he led 186 laps. His worst race here was in 2018, when he only led 93 laps.
That doesn't necessarily mean that Bell's Xfinity numbers translate to Cup success. It's a different car. There's different competition. Still, I can't ignore those numbers.
Another strong value option is Daniel Suarez. I have him 14th on both sites. Trackhouse is a solid team and Suarez starts 31st. His average finish this year is 19.8, which is really good for a team that's in its first year of Cup competition.
Suarez has an average finish of 16.2 at Loudon. That's better than his average finish at most tracks, and he only has more top 10s at three places -- Dover, Pocono, and Richmond.
I love running a lineup this week that pairs Suarez with Bell. Ton of upside in that construction.
I'm also interested in Ryan Preece. I ranked him outside the top 20, but he's someone I could see really rocketing past that projection.
Preece starts 25th. Usually, I wouldn't have much interest in the 37 when it starts there, as Preece has an average finish of 22.1.
He hasn't necessarily had success at Loudon in Cup, but he has a ton of experience here, with 25 starts in the Modifieds, with one win and eight top fives. That experience makes me think Preece could have a really strong race.
