Joey Logano's Recent Bristol Runs Have Surprisingly Been Lackluster
1 day agoJoey Logano has had a pretty baffling season as he ranks third in laps led this year and ninth in points despite only posting a single top-10 finish. He's had numerous unforced errors that usually resulted in finishes just outside the top 10, and he made another one on Saturday in Bristol qualifying, where he hit the wall and had a half-spin that resulted in a 38th-place starting position, his worst since 2017. Whenever a champion with speed qualifies that poorly, you almost have to jump on that for DFS place-differential points, but despite winning two races at Bristol, Logano has also failed to finish in the top 10 in his last eight Bristol starts and has finished worse than his starting position in each one, which is similar to his trend this season. In a race where other typical contenders like William Byron, Chris Buescher, Chase Elliott, and Ross Chastain qualified poorly, some of them may be better place-differential options.
