Motor Racing Network
Three experts over at Motor Racing Network each has different drivers they are laying their money on. For Pere Pistone, it will be Keselowski, who has yet to place first this season but has finished inside the top 10 in each of his last three races at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Tyler Burnett, meanwhile, is pulling for Kyle Busch, winner of five races this year to date. Lastly, Jeff Wackerlin believes that Martin Truex Jr. is just too hot right now to stop. Truex won last week’s race in Kentucky, finished second in Daytona, fourth in Chicago, and first in Sonoma – all over the course of his last four races.
