Corey LaJoie Returns To Site Of His Last Spire Motorsports Start Before Being Traded
1 day agoCorey LaJoie qualified 37th at Bristol and was outqualified by his teammate Cody Ware. This is a mild surprise because for all the criticism he got recently, LaJoie did qualify in the top ten in two of the last three races at Bristol and led 52 laps, but obviously Rick Ware Racing is admittedly going to prioritize its chartered No. 51 car over the unchartered No. 01 car. In last year's Bristol Night Race, he was running 11th when he crashed out of his final race at Spire Motorsports, but the RWR cars aren't as fast. LaJoie did seem to crash somewhat less in his RWR starts than in his Spire starts, so if he does that he should probably gain some positions in the race and outfinish his teammate, but the Ware cars are slow enough it's hard to imagine he'll be worth enough Place Differential points to justify starting him on DFS.
