NASCAR held a pre-race inspection Sunday morning. Four cars failed inspection. They include Martin Truex Jr., Alex Bowman, Ryan Preece and Alex Bowman. Track position is very important at Dover so going to the back makes winning the race incredibly hard this week. For that reason I had to make some changes to my lineups.
Driver Group Game
The only driver I have that is affected by the inspection is Martin Truex Jr. My other choice in Group A is Kyle Busch who starts 22nd. Since I am low on starts with Busch and he starts near the back too, I will leave Truex in my starting lineup. Here is my Driver Group Game Lineup…
Group A: Martin Truex Jr. (8)
Group B: Daniel Suarez (8), Jimmie Johnson (7)
Group C: Ty Dillon (6)
Fantasy Live
Martin Truex Jr. going to the back really hurt my Fantasy Live lineup. I had Truex as a starter and as the race winner. Since he is going to the rear, I am switching Truex out for Kevin Harvick. This is a great track for Harvick and the word in the garage is that his car is really good on the long runs. Here is my new Fantasy Live Lineup…
Driver 1: Kevin Harvick
Driver 2: Chase Elliott
Driver 3: Kyle Larson
Driver 4: Jimmie Johnson
Driver 5: Daniel Suarez
Garage: Erik Jones
Stage 1 Winner: Kyle Larson
Stage 2 Winner: Kevin Harvick
Race Winner: Kevin Harvick
Winning Manufacturer: Ford
