Sonoma: Which Road-Course Experts Are Really The Best?

Think about the best road-course racers in NASCAR, off the top of your head: Tony Stewart, right? Yep. Marcos Ambrose? Sure. Jeff Gordon? Of course. All of those drivers are in the top 10 for NASCAR’s driver rating statistic at Sonoma. But the formula reveals some surprising names near the top as well. For example, who knew Ryan Newman had a better driver rating at Sonoma than Gordon? And that Kurt Busch was better than Ambrose? There are some eye-openers among the traditional “favorites” as well: Robby Gordon is 12th, below even Carl Edwards and Denny Hamlin. Consult the stats below for your fantasy picks; this could be one week where it really helps you. Toyota/Save Mart 350 Pre-Race For point-paying races in current and past four years, at this track.
