Aric Almirola Might Struggle At Indianapolis

Aric Almirola and his Ford may have some problems at Indianapolis. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has a stronger car than last year but will it last on Sunday? That is a bit of an unknown. He begins 14th with several big names right behind. This could be a good thing for Almirola. He will race […]

Brad Keselowski Not Expecting Much Sunday At Indy

Brad Keselowski begins Sunday's race at The Brickyard from the 12th position. Now, the RFK Racing driver has not had a very good year and Keselowski has less than stellar road course history. Last year at Indianapolis was more of the same. Keselowski managed to lead a couple of laps but finished 24th (started 31st). […]

Daniel Suarez Starts 11th At The Brickyard

Daniel Suarez begins the Verizon 200 at The Brickyard from the inside of Row 6. The 11th place start was not that much of a surprise for the TrackHouse Racing driver. It is a team that will enjoy better speed and performance as the laps start ticking off. Suarez has been running in the top […]

Maverick McNealy Could Have Adventure At Rocket Mortgage

Maverick McNealy had a nice tournament going at the 3M Open last week. Then the final two holes came. The bogey for the American golfer was a harbinger of things to come. On 18, McNealy took a nine err quadruple bogey. Dropping five shots knocked McNealy out of the top 25. It was that much […]

Si Woo Kim May Have Less Upside At Rocket Mortgage

Si Woo Kim has had quite an interesting season. The South Korean golfer bounced back from two missed cuts to finish tied for 15th at "The Open". Kim was around the top ten most of the tournament before a final round 73. The putter had been doing quite well for him all week but it […]

Kevin Harvick Has A Chance To Win At Pocono

Kevin Harvick has history on his side at Pocono. Harvick is also racing very well this season despite not winning yet. He is up to ninth in the points standings as his Stewart-Haas Racing car gets better and better. At Pocono, he has that one win in his last six appearances along with a 7.2 […]

Ross Chastain Never Dull When It Comes To Pocono

Ross Chastain is never dull when it comes to Pocono or anywhere for that matter. The TrackHouse Racing driver is in a much better car than last year's Chip Ganassi car. Despite that, the driver was tenth after the second stage before disaster struck. He has not finished in the top-20 in any of his […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Not Recommended At Pocono

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. starts 19th on Sunday afternoon at Pocono. However, the track has not been kind to the JTG Daugherty Racing driver. He has not finished near the top-ten in his past six appearances. Also, Stenhouse Jr. has had several brushes of contact and two DNF's in the last three seasons. This is in […]

William Byron Tries To Break Out At Pocono

William Byron and his No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevy has not enjoyed many good times in months. However, he does have four top-tens and two top-fives at Pocono in his last six races. 2022 has been quite a struggle though. Since the Martinsville win in April, Byron, despite leading quite a few laps, has not […]

Alex Bowman Not Sure What To Expect At Pocono

Alex Bowman and his Hendrick Motorsports Chevy had a wild double last year where he won the first race by sort of being in the right place at the right time. Bowman did follow that up with a seventh place result giving him three straight top-tens. Things may be more difficult this time around. The […]

Tyler Reddick Begins 16th For Sunday At Pocono

Tyler Reddick and his Richard Childress Racing Chevy start 16th at Pocono on Sunday afternoon. The No. 8 car does have a ninth-place result on the 2.5-mile course but also some duds including a 35th. Reddick did perform much better last year during the "double" finishing 11th and 9th and was in the top ten […]

Joey Logano A Source Of Frustration Lately

It is not a secret that Joey Logano has been in a rut of late. He is far from the only driver but the Team Penske racer just has not put up the results. Logano does have three top-tens in his last six races at Pocono but has not truly contended. His best finish was […]

Chase Briscoe A Wildcard At Pocono

Chase Briscoe could be a real question mark at Pocono on Sunday. In his only two races, the Ford driver stayed around the 20's position-wise in each appearance. There was not much of a move up or down. However, he is in a faster car now and begins 13th on Sunday. What might happen? That […]

Aric Almirola Decent DFS Option At Pocono

Few would know this but Aric Almirola has a better average finish in his last six races at Pocono than Kyle Larson. That's right. Almirola's 10.3 is a hair better. The Ford driver has three top-ten results and two top-fives which includes a third. The good news is that he has not finished below 16th […]

Christopher Bell Starts 11th On Sunday At Pocono

Christopher Bell was the sixth Toyota to qualify in the top 11 for Sunday afternoon's race at Pocono. Despite that, he could have one of the better hopes to win. Bell in two of the previous races was right near the front contending for the lead before disaster struck. First, there was that Kyle Larson […]

J.T. Poston Back At Wheelhouse For 3M Open

J.T. Poston was another one of those golfers who just could not make enough putts to get to the weekend at The Open. However, before that, Poston was posting some impressive scores en route to a victory at the John Deere Classic. That followed a runner-up finish at the Travelers Championship where he shot a […]

Adam Long Carries Some Value As 3M Open Looms

Adam Long took the week of The Open off and the week before as well. That may have been smart for the American golfer. After The Memorial, where he missed the cut, Long finished in the top-25 in three straight events. That included shooting consistently right into the final rounds of each tournament. His final […]

Stewart Cink May Not Be In Mix At 3M Open

Stewart Cink could not make many birdies overseas last week at The Open. His opening-round 78 proved to be an early demise as the American missed the cut. He did make four birdies on Friday to go along with three bogeys. The problem for the 49-year old golfer is strokes gained around the green. He […]

Maverick McNealy Likely To Have A Wild Ride At 3M Open

Maverick McNealy was in great shape at the Barracuda Championship last week and then the final four holes happened. There was a double bogey followed by three more bogeys which caused McNealy to drop to a tie for ninth. Honestly, the young American might have won the tournament if he had not missed several key […]

Cole Custer Could Stump The Pundits Again

Cole Custer and his Ford start all the way down in 23rd for Sunday's Ambetter 301. However, he does have an average finish of 11.0 the last two appearances. The "Magic Mile" has been far kinder to him than most. Even last year, Custer did drop to 14th but ran in the top ten during […]

Daniel Suarez Intriguing For New Hampshire

Daniel Suarez enjoyed a car that improved late last year at New Hampshire. He started 31st in 2021, got into the top-20, and held late for a 20th place result. Can Suarez improve on that in 2022? He starts 19th for TrackHouse Racing on Sunday. Both Suarez and Ross Chastain have benefitted with faster Chevy […]

Ross Chastain One To Watch Sunday

Ross Chastain had a better time of it last year at the Ambetter 301. He finished eighth for Chip Ganassi Racing. This year, he starts 18th for TrackHouse Racing but has carried speed late in longer runs on several intermediates this season. The Next-Gen car has been a big benefit for the Chevy #1 driver […]

Kyle Busch Expects To Move Up Field On Sunday

Kyle Busch unexpectedly starts 17th on Sunday for the Ambetter 301. He as a solid 0.368 seconds shy of the pole but has some bad history on his side in New Hampshire. Last year was the disaster of the rain before the start of the race. Busch had a "moment" and needless to say the […]

Chris Buescher May Have Less Upside Sunday

One never knows but even Chris Buescher has admitted that his Ford has not had the best of time at the Ambetter 301. New Hampshire has seen some unfortunate incidents mar his runs the last few times out. A 29th and 25th despite running in the top 15 late is troubling to say the least […]

Michael McDowell Pretty Steady At New Hampshire

Michael McDowell surprised a few experts qualifying 15th for the Ambetter 301. McDowell has not finished in the top-15 three years in a row with a best of 17th and a worst of 25th. Position wise, the Ford driver has not improved much either. So, expecting much movement might be a tough sell. With a […]

Denny Hamlin Slower Than Expected For New Hampshire

Denny Hamlin figured to be in the final qualifying group on Saturday for the Ambetter 301. However, that was not the case. Hamlin wound up 14th instead but did have a run just 0.223 seconds off the pole sitter, Martin Truex Jr. Again, rules are rules when it comes to qualifying. It will be interesting […]

Tyler Reddick Qualifies 13th For New Hampshire

Tyler Reddick is with Richard Childress Racing for at least the rest of the year. He starts 13th for the Ambetter 301 on Sunday as his #8 Chevy finished just outside of the final qualifying round. Reddick has only raced a couple of times at the top level and does have a top-ten under his […]

Joey Logano Begins One Spot Behind Ryan Blaney

Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney's teammate, begins the Ambetter 301 on Sunday from the 12th position. Logano and his #22 Ford qualified at the tail end of a four car Ford run. Logano has been remarkably consistent on the 1.058-mile track. He has finished in the top-ten the past three consecutive races (including two top-fives). Despite […]

Ryan Blaney Outside Top Ten To Start Sunday

Ryan Blaney has been so close to winning a race this year and yet has not done so. For Sunday's race in New Hampshire, the Team Penske driver will start 11th. The strange thing is only one Ford qualified among the top seven (Aric Almirola). Ford's were pretty strong in testing and have won the […]

Mito Pereira Not A Good Option At The Open

Mito Pereira picked the wrong time to start missing shots and putts. The Chilean golfer has missed three consecutive cuts and worse, fired an 81 at the Scottish Open last week. Around the green, he has been average but he was far into the negative range the last three tournaments. Can he find better form […]
