Ross Chastain Needs to Gain Track Position at Iowa
5 months agoAfter Friday's practice session at Iowa Speedway, many people were looking at Ross Chastain as one of the strongest cars on the track, as the No. 1 Chevrolet ended up with the sixth-fastest lap and ranked second-best on the 10-lap average chart. However, as he's done many times this season, Chastain disappointed in qualifying on Saturday and will start from back in 17th for Sunday night's Iowa Corn 350 Presented by Ethanol. While this isn't a full dagger to Chastain's chances of winning, it definitely puts him at a disadvantage to start the race, as it is widely believed that track position is going to be huge at Iowa on Sunday night. Although Chastain had great speed in practice this weekend, he'll likely have his typical performance, which is have a top-10 car with potential for a top-five result if the cards fall correctly.
