William Byron comes into the round as the current leader in the standings, with his only win this term being picked up in the Daytona 500. However, his consistency has remained very high after finishing in the top ten in each of the last three races.
Christopher Bell is breathing down his neck at this stage of the season after winning three of the last four races. His winning sequence was ended in last weekend’s Pennzoil 400 after claiming 12th in the race.
A shock winner was crowned last weekend after Josh Berry came out on top in a thrilling finish. A number of drivers have been very consistent throughout the season, including Chase Elliott and Alex Bowman, who have both finished in the top ten in each of the last three rounds.
Straight Talk Wireless 400 Picks
A wide-open race is expected this weekend, and cases can be made for a number of drivers. However, the preference is for former winner Denny Hamlin.
The American comes into this round in strong form after finishing second in the Shriners Children’s Open, and his knowledge of the track could count for a lot on Sunday.
