Kyle Larson Has Limited Upside At Daytona This Weekend
3 months agoWhile Kyle Larson is typically one of the drivers with the highest upside on any given race weekend, that is not the case for Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway. Superspeedways are one track type where Larson has struggled at quite a bit in the past, as the Hendrick motorsports driver has just one finish better than 11th in his last 13 attempts at Daytona and Talladega. As far as Daytona goes specifically, the record is even worse; Larson has never posted a top-five finish at this race track and has just five top-10 results in 20 (25%) career attempts at The World Center of Racing. In this summer Daytona race, Larson is on a six-race streak of finishes of 20th or worse. He qualified ninth for this weekend's race, and because of that along with his shaky (at best) track record, DraftKings players should look at other drivers for their DFS lineups on Saturday night.
