For Logano, it was his third win at Dega in the last six races and for Penske Racing it was their sixth win at the track in the last eight races. It was a pretty quiet race, in terms of cautions & crashes, up until Lap 165 where The Big One finally happened. It involved 14 cars including some contenders in Brad Keselowski, Clint Bowyer, William Byron, Paul Menard, and others. This week the Monster Energy Cup Series heads to the Monster Mile, Dover International Speedway, for the AAA Drive for Autism. It is a unique track in that it has the speed similar to a mile and a half track but the aggressiveness of a short track and some people refer to it is a bigger, faster Bristol. Some of the interesting aspects are that cars go low into the high-banked corners and then pop up the track like an incline as they get into the straightaways. The key to winning here is also similar to Bristol in that you have to walk a fine line between being aggressive and staying out of trouble. Track position is also a big factor as cars starting at the rear can go a lap or two down very early and it's very difficult to get those laps back. From a fantasy standpoint, dominator points are back in the mix this week as we have seen multiple drivers lead 100 or more laps n three straight and four of the last six races here. With FanDuel adding fantasy NASCAR this past week there are a few early takeaways I have noticed when running the past fantasy numbers. On DraftKings, it is very tough to roster drivers who start inside the Top 10 but don't really have dominator potential(laps...

He raced his way through the field and into the Top 10 within 36 laps and with a few fast pit stops late in the race was able to get out front, lead 32 laps, and win his third straight race of the season. It also extended his lead in the overall NASCAR standings to 56 points over second place Joey Logano and his average DraftKings points per race lead to 6.5 over Kevin Harvick who also has three wins on the season. This week the Monster Energy Cup Series heads to Talladega Superspeedway for the second restrictor plate race of the season. That means almost anyone can win, especially with Dale Earnhardt Jr. retired, and shifts our fantasy strategy from dominator points to place differential. No driver has led 100 laps and only five drivers have led 50 or more laps in the last six races here at Talladega. On the flip side, there have been 7 or more drivers to pick up double-digit place differential in each of the last six races with 12 or more to do so in four of the last six races. One other interesting nugget to consider is that the winner here at Talladega has come from a Top 10 starting position in six of the last seven races. With all of that in mind, let's dig in and take a look at some of the race trends and pre-qualifying targets. Last Six Winners at Talladega Superspeedway 2017 Fall - Brad Keselowski(started 6th, led 7 laps, 54.75 DK points) 2017 Spring - Ricky Stenhouse Jr.(started 1st, led 14 laps, 52 DK points) 2016 Fall - Joey Logano(started 16th, led 45 laps, 73.75 DK points) 2016 Spring - Brad Keselowski(started 7th, led 46 laps, 64 DK points) 2015 Fall - Joey Logano(started 10th, led 20 laps, 61 DK points) 2015 Spring - Dale Earnhardt Jr.(started 4th, led 67 laps, 66.75 DK points)...

There were three dominators and it started with Ryan Blaney who led 100 before being taken out by lapped traffic and then the lead alternated between Kyle Busch(117) and Kyle Larson(200). There was a ton of bumping and banging right up until the final laps where Kyle Busch moved Kyle Larson then held him off to win his second straight race overall and second straight Bristol win giving him seven for his career. This week the Monster Energy Cup Series heads to Richmond Raceway for the Toyota Owners 400 and the seasons first night race. It is also the second straight and third short track race of the season but like I have mentioned in the past, all three tracks are considerably different and a reason why I put a little less weight on track type this week. One thing that remains the same from a strategy standpoint is the fact we will once again be concentrating on dominator points with 400 laps this week. There has been at least one driver to lead 100 or more laps in each of the last six races and two drivers to lead 100 or more in two of the last three races here. Like I mentioned here last year, qualifying and track position will also be very important as the winner of the race has come from a Top 5 starting position in each of the last seven races at Richmond(twice it has been won from the pole). With all that said, let's dig in and take a look at soem race and track trends and then break down a few pre-qualifying targets. Last Six Winners at Richmond Raceway 2017 Fall - Kyle Larson(started 4th, led 53 laps, 77.25 DK points) 2017 Spring - Joey Logano(started 5th, led 25 laps, 62.75 DK...

He led 116 laps scoring 117 DraftKings points and overtook Kevin Harvick with an average of 71.9 DK points per race this season. He also picked up 59 series points to extend his lead over Joey Logano by 38 points and is locked into the playoffs. He now heads to a track where he has tallied a career-high six wins. This week the Monster Energy Cup Series travels to the Last Great Coliseum, Bristol Motor Speedway, for the Food City 500 this Sunday. It is the second short track race of the season but the length is really the only similarity between Martinsville and Bristol. While the Martinsville is a flat track shaped like a paperclip, Bristol is a giant bowl shape with 24 to 30 degrees of banking and in past years they have added a compound to the track that has opened up a second lane to help produce more passing. This is not your father's Bristol, that's for sure. From a fantasy perspective, dominator points will be key when building your core driver list. The race consists of 500 laps and there have been two drivers to lead 100 or more laps in five straight races with one driver leading 200 or more laps in four straight races. There have also been three or more drivers to lead 50 or more laps in two straight and four of the last six races here at Bristol. Place differential is also something to pay attention to this week as there have been six or more drivers who have picked up double-digit place differential in five of the last six races with a whopping 16 in the Spring of 2015. With that said, let's take a look at some of the NASCAR trends and then some pre-qualifying targets. Last Six Winners at Bristol Motor Speedway 2017 Summer - Kyle Busch(started...
