Chris Buescher will need to use his road prowess on Sunday at Chicago. It will not be an easy challenge. Buescher begins 15th on Sunday after winding up 1.252 seconds behind Denny Hamlin for the pole. The No. 17 Ford driver for RFK Racing did not seem to have the same exit speed out of turns like the Chevy's and particularly the Toyota's. Buescher was more than two seconds slower in laps 6-10 of his practice session too. His pit crew has their work cut out for them but Buescher has a third-best average finish on road courses at 10.6. He has done everything but win the last three years. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller

Chris Buescher of RFK Racing will start second for this week's Cup race at Kansas Speedway, the AdventHealth 400. This will be the third time in Buescher's Cup career that he will have a top-10 starting position, but his first time on the front row. In 18 races at Kansas, Buescher has four top-10 finishes, including a runner-up finish in this race last year, where he lost by mere inches to Kyle Larson. After 11 races this season, Buescher has five top-10 finishes and an average finish of 16.2. In practice, Buescher ranked seventh in overall lap averages and displayed top-5 speeds in the five, 10, 15, and 20 consecutive lap average categories. Based on his practice speeds and equipment, Buescher is an underrated favorite for the win this week at Kansas.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

Chris Buescher, the methodical driver from Prosper, Texas, has seldom prospered at Texas. In 15 previous Texas starts, he has shockingly never finished better than 14th, making this the only track that has been on the schedule his entire Cup Series career where he has never earned a top ten. The only time he had an average running position of better than 15th was in 2023 where he started second until a late pit stop resulted in his 14th-place finish, but the RFK Racing cars seem substantially slower now than they did in 2023. The fact that Buescher is starting 12th in today's race (which is better than he has ever finished at Texas) makes him a low-key terrible option for today's race, particularly when considering his boss and teammate Brad Keselowski (who has a much better Texas record) qualified substantially worse.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

While Chris Buescher has seemed to maintain his consistency of recent seasons, he and RFK Racing in general have seemed to lose a lot of speed as he has not led a lap in the first nine races of 2025. Even though he qualified sixth at Talladega, a track which is traditionally conducive to a lot of lead changes, don't expect that trend to necessarily change today as he also qualified sixth for the Daytona 500 and never led that race. He qualified well enough that he should likely be avoided for DFS unless you think he is likely to dominate the race and earn a lot of lap leader points. Since he has a Ford and has won at Daytona, that's not impossible but the RFK Fords have never seemed to have as much speed as the Penske or even Front Row Motorsports Fords on drafting tracks of late and he has historically tended to be better at Daytona than Talladega.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

Chris Buescher ($8,300 on DraftKings this weekend) should be a strong DFS play for Sunday's Food City 500 race. The Roush-Fenway Keselowski Racing driver has been one of the best in the Next Gen era at this track, with a win and three top-10 finishes over the four races that the Cup Series has ran here with this car. His only "bad" race was a 14th-place effort last fall. As far as this weekend goes Buescher qualified back in 24th for Sunday's race, but that 's pretty normal for him considering his average starting position in the Next Gen era is 22.75. That means Place Differential points on DraftKings, and Buescher has been one of the best at that here at Bristol. Look for the No. 17 Ford to be in contention for yet another top-10 finish this weekend. Buescher is currently tied for the series lead with five top-10 results through the first eight races of the season. --Jordan McAbee
