COCA-COLA 600:Charlotte Top 5 Drivers to Watch
My #5 pick is a former winner here, #22 Joey Logano. Joey has that win in 23 career starts, that win in autumn of 2015 and six Top 5’s, 26%. He is ranked #3 for me on tracks like this. Team Penske has great notes going into this race they have three wins here in the last 10 years on the oval.
My #4 pick is the defending champion of this race, #5 Kyle Larson. He has 12 starts, that win and two Top 5 finishes, 17%. Kyle is #5 hottest over the last six weeks.
My #3 driver is a three time winner here, #19 Martin Truex Jr. Martin has 30 starts, three wins, and seven Top 5’s, 23%. All seven of his top 5’s including his three wins have come in his last 11 races. He is rated #2 on tracks like this and this helps to make Martin one of the men to watch on Sunday night in the Queen city. He sits #6 in points and is #9 hottest over the last six weeks.
My #2 driver won here in this race four years ago, #18 Kyle Busch. Kyle has 33 starts here, one win and 15 Top 5’s, 45%. He not only won here four years ago, but he has finished Top 5 in three of three of the following 600’s. He is #4 ranked on tracks and is #2 hottest over the last six races.
The #1 pick is another former winner here, #9 Chase Elliott. Chase won here in the 500 miler in 2020. Chase has 10 starts, 1 win and five top 5’s, 50%. Chase is #1 hottest over the last six weeks. He is on a four race streak of Top 5’s at Charlotte.
