Bubba Wallace An Underdog At Talladega
4 years agoRichard Petty Motorsports driver Bubba Wallace will start from the 24th position in Sunday's Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. Wallace and his No. 43 team have run exceptionally better in 2020, and Talladega offers a chance for Wallace's first career Cup Series win. In four starts at Talladega, Wallace has failed to score a top-10 finish. However, Wallace's best career finish came in the 2018 Daytona 500. While there are some differences between Daytona and Talladega, much of the same skill and principle apply. Starting towards the back, Wallace offers upside for position differential. Wallace has some momentum and has been gaining confidence with his strong recent runs. Anything can happen at Talladega, so Wallace is a viable option to throw into DFS lineups.
