Martin Truex Jr Runs Out of Gas on Last Lap at Sonoma, Finishes 27th
6 months agoIt has just been one of those years for Martin Truex Jr. That's exactly what the Joe Gibbs Racing driver said after the conclusion of the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway on Sunday afternoon, as he went from running in second-place with one lap to go to finishing 27th in the race. That is because the No. 19 Toyota ran out of fuel on the final lap and Truex was unable to complete the lap, relegating him to the final position on the lead lap. This caused a massive shift in points for fantasy players that had Truex, which either caused massive frustration or elation, depending on which side of the coin you were on. Heading into the race at Sonoma, Truex was one of the best Place Differential plays on the slate, as he started 21st but was the defending winner at the track.
