Chris Buescher Has Been One of The Best at Road Courses
8 months agoChris Buescher qualified 20th for this weekend's EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas, but that doesn't mean you should stay away from him. Road course race tracks have been one of the most consistent venues for Buescher in the NextGen era, as he has finished 11th or better in each of the last ten races on this track type. That includes an eighth-place result here at COTA last season despite starting back in 32nd-place. At $7,800 on DraftKings, Buescher makes for an interesting pick, as the upside is there due to his midpack starting position and place differential potential, but he has just one top-five finish at road courses over his last nine starts. Still, you can't say he hasn't been a safe pick for a top-10 at these tracks lately. His average finish of 10.1 over the last 18 road course races is second-best to Chase Elliott's 8.5 over that same span.
