NASCAR Fantasy Live Picks, 2014 Texas, AAA Texas 500

Jimmie Johnson celebrates in victory lane at Texas Motor Speedway

There are only three weeks remaining in the NASCAR season. With Dale Earnhardt Jr’s surprise win at Martinsville, this leaves one more open spot for consistent drivers like Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth for the championship. They may attempt a conservative approach in order to secure their ticket. Other drivers, like Kevin Harvick and Brad Keselowski, need to take risks to advance to the final rounds. Your lineup should reflect your status in your league: conservative or risky. There are plenty of options this week because we do not see completely dominant drivers. I would suggest choosing your three favorite drivers and fill the final two spots with the best budget options available.

The first pick for my roster is the most consistent driver at Texas. Matt Kenseth has 12 Top-5 finishes in his last 19 starts and has not finished outside the Top 20 in the last ten years. With 79% of his laps in the Top 15 and an average running position of 9.4 since 2005, Kenseth is the best in the series in lap-to-lap performance. Matt Kenseth has been solid all this season and he should be a productive choice for your roster.

I am suspicious of my second roster choice because he has burned me multiple times throughout the 2014 season. Kyle Busch has been running more consistently lately with the exception of being caught up in an early wreck at Talladega. With 7 Top-5 finishes in his last 18 Texas races, Kyle Busch has shown upside in Fort Worth. He is third best in the series in lap-to-lap consistency, and I expect a solid finish this week.

Greg Biffle was tempting for my third pick, but I had enough cap room to upgrade to Jeff Gordon. While Biffle has better track data, Gordon is decent in Texas and is a more consistent driver in 2014. He is also the best driver in the championship standings after a second place finish at Martinsville. I am expecting a conservative approach that will appeal to those on top of the standings.

With the top drivers taking up most of my budget, I am left to fill the remaining two spots with budget drivers. David Ragan is often a decent value based on his low salary cap number. He has middle-of-the-road lap-to-lap numbers in Texas. If he finishes in the middle, then he will be a valuable choice. Landon Cassill, with a 17th place average over the last month, is slowly raising his salary cap number. He should still be worth the value.

FANTASY NASCAR LIVE SALARY CAP

Fantasy Live on NASCAR.com has a scoring system that combines fast laps, laps led, finish position, and start-to-finish differential. In order to prevent us from starting the five best drivers every week, Fantasy Live uses a salary cap format. Our formula calculates the average number of Fantasy Live points earned over the past five Texas races for each driver and divides that number by the salary cap figure. The end result is a number that indicates how many points to expect from each fantasy dollar. Greg Biffle is on my yahoo roster, but I left him off of my Fantasy Live roster in favor of Jeff Gordon. As a consolation prize, we will use his Texas numbers to demonstrate our formula.

GREG BIFFLE AT TEXAS

  • Total Laps Led Last Five Texas Races: 91 laps equals 9.1 points per race
  • Fast Laps: Cannot be calculated
  • Average Finish Position: 6th place average equals 38 points per race

NASCAR Fantasy Live Picks, 2014 Martinsville, Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500

martinsville speedway nascar race 2013

The racing gods are on Brad Keselowski’s side this season. On an unpredictable restrictor plate track, Keselowski avoided elimination by winning in Alabama. We are now down to four races and eight drivers until the end of the 2014 season. We are also running out of time in Fantasy Racing and you need to be conservative if you are leading or take risks to catch up to the league leader. We are on a more predictable track in Martinsville and should be a welcome relief to those of us who take the time to analyze the numbers.

With the more predictable nature of Martinsville Speedway, the best strategy is to choose your three favorite drivers. The final two roster spots should be the best value drivers with the remaining salary cap. My first pick was recently eliminated from the championship and has dominating race statistics at the track. Jimmie Johnson had 15 Top Five finishes at Martinsville in his last 19 races. With 93% of his laps in the Top 15 and an average running position of 5.6 since 2005, Johnson is expected to run near the top. Short tracks produce more laps to lead, so there is a greater benefit to choose drivers with favorable running positions. Johnson is the best in the series in fast laps and laps led and should be an asset to your team this week.

The second choice in my lineup, Jeff Gordon, rivals his teammate’s success in Virginia. Gordon also has 15 Top Five finishes in his last 19 Martinsville races. Gordon is second to Johnson in lap-to-lap performance, laps led, fast laps, and average finish position since 2005. The biggest difference between the two drivers is that Gordon can still win the championship and has ben a more consistent driver in 2014.

My original third choice for my roster was Denny Hamlin because Hamlin was the third-best driver in all track statistics. After selecting my budget choices on my roster, I had enough cap space to upgrade to Brad Keselowski. Although he has not had dominating numbers at Martinsville, my addition to my roster is due to his success in the 2014 season. Keselowski has proven to be a force even on tracks where he is statistically average. I expect a solid run after he squeaked through to the next round.

These selections allowed little salary cap space for my last two roster spots. My expectations are low but should still maintain value due to the low salary cap number. Michael Annett finished in 31st place earlier this season at Martinsville. Landon Cassill has averaged a 27th place in his last five races. If both drivers duplicate their efforts, they should provide enough value to be worth a roster spot.

FANTASY NASCAR LIVE SALARY CAP

Fantasy Live on NASCAR.com has a scoring system that combines fast laps, laps led, finish position, and start-to-finish differential. In order to prevent us from starting the best drivers every week, Fantasy Live uses a salary cap format.

Then, we divide that number by the salary cap figure to determine how many points to expect from each driver. Denny Hamlin got bumped from my lineup in favor of Brad Keselowski. As a consolation prize, we will use his Martinsville numbers to further illustrate the formula.

DENNY HAMLIN AT MARTINSVILLE

  • Laps Led Last Five Martinsville Races: 57 laps equals 5.7 points per race
  • Fast Laps: Cannot be calculated with 100% accuracy
  • Average Finish Position: 16th place = 28 points per race
  • Start to Finish Differential: Negative 14 = -14 points per race
  • Total points per race: 19.70
  • Fantasy Live Salary Cap Figure: $23.50

NASCAR Fantasy Live Picks, 2014 Talladega Superspeedway, GEICO 500

Rusty Wallace 1993 Talladega crash

Talladega is one of the most exciting races of the season, and the championship implications will only make the race more competitive. Restrictor plate tracks balance the field to the extent that there is little advantage from one team to the next. The results are unpredictable. As a result, your fantasy racing strategy for this week will be different than most. Dispensing Fantasy Racing advice is difficult as my guess is just as likely to fail as it is to succeed. That being said, some drivers have a better Talladega history than others. Below are my pre-qualifying Fantasy Live picks. My strategy is to start with this team and switch the picks with drivers who qualify near the back of the field. The points gained from start-to-finish differential should outweigh the fluky laps led number.

The driver with the most Fantasy Live points over the last five Talladega races is the first pick for my roster. Matt Kenseth has hopefully cooled off from his post-Charlotte riff with Brad Keselowski. Since 2005, Kenseth has a series-best average running position of 13.9 and runs 65% of his laps in the Top 15. Kenseth has 12 Top Twenty finishes in his last 19 Talladega races. He also led the most laps of any driver during this time span.

The second pick for my roster scared me earlier in the year at this race. He stayed in the back of the field to avoid the big wreck and is a risky strategy. With his championship situation, he may need to be more aggressive. Dale Earnhardt Jr. usually drives well at restrictor plate tracks. With an average running position of 14.7 and 60% of his laps in the Top 15, Junior has a chance to finish near the top. He is also third in laps led since 2005.

The third choice for my roster is Brian Vickers. Vickers has 5 Top Five finishes in his last 13 Talladega races. Vickers has a 17th place average finish position and spends 57% of his laps in the Top 15. David Ragan is a great bargain as he drivers much better than his salary cap figure. Ragan has 7 Top Ten finishes in his last 15 starts and holds a 15th place average finish position since 2005. He won this race last spring and has upside. He was running well earlier this year before being involved in a wreck.

There are plenty of options as any driver in the field has a legitimate shot at a Top 15 finish. My fifth roster spot goes to David Gilliland. Gilliland is not as dominant here as his teammate David Ragan, but he understands how to drive at restrictor plate tracks. Once again, my picks will be influenced by the qualifying order, and the weekly picks can change.

FANTASY NASCAR LIVE SALARY CAP

Fantasy Live on NASCAR.com uses a scoring system that combines fast laps, laps led, average finish position, and start-to-finish differential. In order to prevent us from simply starting the top drivers ever week, Fantasy Live uses a salary cap format. Our formula simply determines the average number of points each driver earned over the last five Talladega races and divides that number by the salary cap figure. The end result is a number that shows how many points to expect form each of your fantasy dollars. I almost picked Jeff Gordon over Dale Earnhardt Jr. simply due to his consistency in 2014. As a consolation prize, we will use his Talladega numbers to illustrate the points per dollar salary cap formula.

JEFF GORDON AT TALLADEGA

  • Total laps led last five Talladega races: 12 equals 1.2 fantasy points per race
  • Average finish position: 19th place equals 25 fantasy points per race
  • Fast Laps: cannot be calculated with 100% accuracy
  • Start-to-finish differential: Negative Ten equals (-10) fantasy points per race
  • Average points per race: 16.20
  • Fantasy Live Salary Cap Figure: $27.75
  • Fantasy points per dollar: 16.20 divides by $27.75 equals 0.58 points per dollar

NASCAR Fantasy Live Picks, 2014 Charlotte Motor Speedway, Bank of America 500

We saw some playoff contenders with poor finishes last week at Kansas. Kansas is usually a predictable race, and those of us who selected Jimmie Johnson, Brad Keselowski, or Dale Earnhardt Jr. are reeling from last week’s picks. This week in North Carolina, we see a track where there is not a dominant driver. Instead, there is a pool of about a dozen racers who have a clear shot at success. The next two weeks, we will see some exciting races with high stakes and some separation in our fantasy leagues.

My first roster pick has already qualified for the next round of the playoffs. With the success of the Penske tandem this season, I want to roster one Penske driver if practical. Although his lap-to-lap performance is not excellent, Logano has the second-best average finish position in the series. With 58% of his laps in the Top 15 since 2005, Logano is eighth in the series in lap-to-lap performance. Based on his 2014 season, Logano should help my team this week.

The second pick on my roster performs better at Charlotte than any other track in the series and has the best average finish position in the series since 2005. Kasey Kahne has 9 Top 5 finishes in his last 19 Charlotte races. Kahne is second in the series in laps led and fast laps during this time span. Over the past five races, Kahne has the most laps led of any driver in the series. Kahne’s biggest drawback is that he did not lead any laps earlier in the year.

Jimmie Johnson won the Charlotte race earlier this year and has great track performance. However, he has disappointed my team a few times this year, and I am admittedly biased against him for at least a couple of weeks. Feel free to choose Johnson, but the third roster spot for my team will be Matt Kenseth. Although winless in 2014, Kenseth has been one of the best drivers in 2014. Matt Kenseth ranks between fourth and sixth in all statistical categories at the track. Kenseth has 10 Top Ten finishes in his last 19 races at the track.

With limited salary cap space for the remaining two roster spots, we needed to find a couple of budget drivers. I am glad to have researched this article because I discovered Trevor Bayne as an entered driver. Trevor Bayne maintains a 23rd place average at the track. He is worth his $11.75 price tag. Michael Annett, with a 28th place finish earlier this year, is the choice for the fifth roster spot.

FANTASY NASCAR LIVE SALARY CAP

Fantasy Live on nascar.com uses a scoring system that combines fast laps, laps led, finish position, and start-to-finish differential. In order to prevent us from simply starting the top drivers ever week, Fantasy Live uses a salary cap format. Our formula calculates the average number of points for the last five Charlotte races and divides this number by the salary cap figure for each driver. The end result is a number that helps predicts how many points to expect from each fantasy dollar. I suggested Keselowski last week, and he rewarded my insight by finishing dead last in fantasy live points. As a result, I chose Logano over him this week. Keselowski can win at any track this year. As a consolation prize, I will use Keselowski’s Charlotte numbers to further illustrate our formula.

BRAD KESELOWSKI AT CHARLOTTE

  • Total laps led last five Charlotte races: 197 laps equals 19.7 fantasy live points per race
  • Fast laps: Cannot be calculated with 100% accuracy
  • Average finish position: 12th place equals 32 fantasy live points per race
  • Start-to-finish differential: Plus 5 equals 5 fantasy live points per race
  • Total fantasy live points per Charlotte race: 56.7
  • Fantasy Live Salary Cap Figure: $28.00
  • Points per Salary Cap Dollar: 56.7 / $28.00 equals 2.03 fantasy points per dollar

NASCAR Fantasy Live Picks, 2014 Kansas Speedway, Hollywood Casino 400

2014 NASCAR Chase for the Sprint Cup Contender Round

NASCAR returns to Kansas for the first race of the Contender Round of the new playoff format. Twelve drivers begin their quest to be one of the eight drivers still standing after Talladega in three weeks. Earlier in the season, Kevin Harvick had the fastest car for most of the race. Jeff Gordon squeaked past him in the final laps for the win. There are five drivers who are the favorites this week: Kevin Harvick, Brad Keselowski, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth and Jeff Gordon. Kansas is generally a predictable track so I would suggest choosing your three favorite drivers from this list and filling in the final two spots with the best budget options available.

My first two choices for my roster have the most NASCAR Fantasy Live points in 2014, and their inclusion should not be considered surprising. Kevin Harvick had a dominant car earlier in the year with 119 laps led. Since 2005, Harvick has an average running position of 11.6 and spends 71% of his laps running in the Top 15. Harvick is third in laps led and fourth in fast laps. In the last two Kansas races, Harvick has led a combined total of 257 laps. I like his chances this week.

The second choice does not have a dominant track history at Kansas, but has been finishing in the Top Five in many races where he was not dominant. Brad Keselowski only has an average running position of 14th and has 64% of his laps in the Top 15. These numbers are tenth in the series at Kansas since 2005. While the numbers are not overly impressive, Keselowski has the fastest team in the series right not and will remain on my roster until he cools down.

Jimmie Johnson finished in the Top Ten in 12 of his last 13 races at Kansas. Due to his consistency, he is my choice in my Yahoo leagues. He has only led 85 laps over the last five races at Kansas. Due to the low quantity of laps led by Johnson, I am suggesting Matt Kenseth for the third roster spot by a narrow margin. Kenseth has the most laps led in the series over the last five races. With six Top Five finishes in his last thirteen Kansas races, Kenseth has shown his upside. He is a consistent option here too, as evidenced by 77% of his laps in the Top 15 and an average running position of 10.4 since 2005.

These three roster selections force us to go under $10.00 for the final two roster spots. Michael Annett had a 25th place finish earlier this year, and will provide value if he duplicates his efforts. Landon Cassill has a 31st place average. While neither average is overly impressive, they will provide enough value for their salary cap number. Timmy Hill could provide value for you at $5,00, but poses a risk of a 43rd place finish.

FANTASY NASCAR LIVE SALARY CAP

Fantasy Live on NASCAR.com has a scoring system that combines fast laps, laps led, finish position, and start-to-finish differential. In order to prevent us from simply starting the best drivers every week, Fantasy Live uses a salary cap format. Our formula simply calculates the average number of Fantasy Live points for each driver’s last five Kansas races. Next, we divide this number by the Fantasy Live salary cap figure. The end result is a number that illustrates how many fantasy live points to expect from each salary cap dollar for every driver at the race. I may regret benching Jimmie Johnson, and I will use his Kansas numbers as a small consolation to his team.

JIMMIE JOHNSON AT KANSAS

  • Laps led last five Kansas races: 85 equals 8.5 fantasy live points per race
  • Fast laps: Cannot be calculated with 100% accuracy
  • Average finish position: 6th place average equals 38 fantasy live points per race
  • Start-to-finish differential: Plus 6 equals 6 fantasy live points per race
  • Average points per race: 52.50
  • Fantasy Live Salary Cap figure: $27.75
  • Points per salary cap dollar: 52.50 divided by $27.75 equals 1.89 points per dollar
