6 months agoJoey Logano will start on the pole in Sunday's Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway. Aside from starting on the front row, which has produced 10 of the 34 winners at this track, there is a lot to be excited about when it comes to Logano this weekend. Not only does he have two top-five finishes in his last three starts here, but his average finish of 12.9 at this track is the second-best among full-time drivers in the series. In addition to his strong performances in wine country, the former two-time Cup Series champion has been solid on all of NASCAR's road courses throughout his career, earning 22 top-10s in 45 starts. Another reason to consider the Team Penske star this weekend is that this team is always prepared for new experiences. From winning the inaugural races on Bristol's dirt tack and at the LA Coliseum to dominating on North Wilkesboro's new pavement in this year's all-star race, the No. 22 is always ready for the unknown. This ability to handle what others are trying to figure out will come in handy this weekend as Sonoma too has been repaved, a move that was designed to make the cars significantly faster. If Logano and his crew can continue to handle these new challenges as they have in recent years, expect big things from the 17-year Cup veteran this weekend at Sonoma.--Adam Erhardt - RotoBaller
