Chris Buescher Not Dominant Enough at Atlanta to Maximize DFS Value
3 mins agoChris Buescher qualified 8th as the fastest of the three RFK Racing drivers for today's Ambetter Health 300. He has a history of being a pretty good drafter but not an elite one. Although his record at Daytona is much stronger than his record at Atlanta, he did lead 39 laps in the 2023 summer Atlanta race, second-most in that event. Although just given his talent and the general Ford speed, he might be worth a bet for the win at 28-1, he's probably both starting too well and too highly priced at $8,600 to be worth choosing for DFS play. While the Ford drivers are not necessarily worth avoiding since they will likely dominate the race, it seems much more likely that the Penske team drivers will dominate the race than Buescher, which means he probably won't earn enough bonus points to become more valuable.
