Ross Chastain Should Run Up Front at COTA
8 months agoDon't sleep on Ross Chastain in the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix this weekend. The Trackhouse Racing driver has a phenomenal record at Circuit of the Americas, as he has never finished worse than fourth at this track in three career starts. Additionally, Chastain has the best driver rating (119.6) at this track and has led the second-most laps (35). He led 31 of those 35 in the 2022 race, which he won. With that being said, Chastain is a bit of a wildcard at road courses. Looking at similar tracks, when you look at the eight most recent road course races, Chastain has just one top-five finish (his fourth here at COTA) and only three top-10s. Still, his track record at this Austin, Texas race track can't be ignored. Chastain qualified sixth for this weekend's race, too. In DraftKings, he becomes a very sneaky alternate-dominator potential pick, as his place differential upside as limit. Consider going overweight on Chastain in tournament formats on DraftKings.
