The Sprint Cup boys move to Bristol this Saturday night for the 24th race of the season. Bristol Motor Speedway is a .533 mile Short Track located in Bristol, Tennessee. Here are my Top 5 drivers to win in Bristol this weekend. We still have to wait for Qualifying and Happy Hour before finalizing our Head to Head matchups. Bristol is normally a very good money track for us!! Now 26-18 59% the past 16 weeks with our Head to Head Nascar matchups. We did cash our #1 Driver to win last week with Carl Edwards! For starters, I think Jeff Gordon has the best shot of winning this race. Gordon has 5 wins, 12 Top 5 finishes and 18 Top 10 finishes in his 31 starts here in Bristol. Gordon has an average finish of 11.7 here in Bristol which is the 4th best average finish among all drivers. Past 2 years, Jeff Gordon's average finish at track type - SHORT TRACK is 6.3. In 9 races, he has 0 wins and 7 top 10 finishes. Next in line I would go with Kurt Busch. Kurt Busch has five wins, 5 Top 5 finishes and 9 Top 10 finishes in 15 starts here in Bristol. Busch has an average finish of 14.3 here in Bristol. Then, back in my 3rd spot, I have to go with Kevin Harvick. Harvick has 1 win, 8 Top 5 finishes and 10 Top 10 finishes in his 15 starts in Bristol. Harvick has an average finish of 9.9 here in Bristol which is the 2nd best average finish among all active drivers. Past 2 years, Kevin Harvick's average finish at track type - SHORT TRACK is 11.9. In 9 races, he has 0 wins and 6 top 10 finishes. Kevin Harvick's average finish over the past 3 races is 6.0. In 3 races, he has 0 wins and 3 top 10 finishes. Looking at my pick for the 4th spot we turn to Matt Kenseth. Kenseth has two wins, 7 Top 5 finishes and 10 Top 10 finishes in his 17 starts in Bristol. Kenseth has an average finish of 12.4 in Bristol which is 5th best among all active drivers. Matt Kenseth's average finish over the past 3 races is 9.3. In 3 races, he has 0 wins and 1 top 10 finish. Kenseth's average finish over the past 10 races is 11.2. In 10 races, he has 0 wins and 6 top 10 finishes. Rounding out my Top 5 and sitting in the 5th position is Dale Earnhardt Jr. Earnhardt Jr. has one win, seven Top 5 finishes and ten Top 10 finishes in his 17 starts in Bristol. Earnhardt Jr. has an average finish of 11.3 in Bristol which is 3rd best among all drivers. Last 2 years, Dale Earnhardt, Jr.'s average finish at track type - SHORT TRACK is 12.1.
