Ryan Preece Probably Won't Contend At Daytona 500
3 days agoRyan Preece makes his debut with RFK Racing in Sunday's Daytona 500, starting from the 27th position but he does seem to have speed as he qualified third in single-car qualifying and his RFK teammates both led in the second Duel race with Chris Buescher significantly contending for the win. As a result, Preece is priced highly at $8,400 for DFS lineups, but he still has considerable value since the Fords in general and the RFK cars in particular are likely to run better than 27th in the race. Preece himself had moments at Daytona on drafting tracks, but those primarily came during his JTG-Daugherty Racing years, and he has rarely contended in the Next Gen era, even considering Ford's speed on superspeedways. He is probably overvalued, but given his starting position and RFK's speed, he's still worth considering.
