The field has been set for this Sunday’s Kwik Trip 250 at Road America for the third road course race of the season. With road course ace Chase Elliott and Chase Briscoe leading the field to green on Sunday, let’s dive into the best NASCAR DFS picks for tournaments.
NASCAR DFS GPP Picks Today: Road America
NASCAR heads north to tackle its third road course race of the season this weekend at Road America. It is more of a technical road course and with it being roughly four miles in length, there isn’t many laps scheduled for Sunday’s event. This leads to dominator points not being as important and DFS players can simply focus more so on drivers with place differential upside and high finishing position potential.
Top Driver Picks & Projections
Ross Chastain $10,300 DraftKings/$13,000 FanDuel (12th)
Chastain has been a force at every single track type so far this season and he even has a win under his belt at COTA (a similar road course) earlier in the year. The Trackhouse cars have been dominant at each road even this year and with another strong showing in practice on Saturday, there is no reason to believe they won’t show strength once again on Sunday.
Ryan Blaney $9,200 DraftKings/$10,000 FanDuel (19th)Â
With William Byron stealing most of the ownership in this section, Blaney will hopefully be lower owned than he should even though he has back to back sixth-place finishes at road courses this year. Looking even further, he has four straight top-10 finishes at road courses and is top four in average green flag speed at them this year as well. He doesn’t offer as much place differential upside as Byron, but he was faster in practice and performed better at COTA and Sonoma.

Tyler Reddick $8,600 DraftKings/$8,500 FanDuel (4th)Â
Reddick had one of the fastest cars in practice on Saturday and has shown he can contend at road courses in the past. The higher starting position will keep his ownership lower, but he has real potential to win this race and it’s something he will have to strategize to do as he is win to get in mode for the playoffs currently.
Chase Briscoe $8,300 DraftKings/$7,800 FanDuel (2nd)
Briscoe is in a tough spot starting beside Elliott to start the race, but he was able to put up some hot laps in practice and there’s a case to be made he has the best car in the field this weekend. He is also no stranger to competing at road courses and being able to contend as he is one of the better road racers in the field. His price tag makes him a bit more flexible than Elliott and Larson up top and he has similar upside to both.
Daniel Suarez $7,700 DraftKings/$11,500 FanDuel (17th)Â
Suarez is underpriced on DraftKings and priced aggressively over on FanDuel so he makes for a better tournament target over on there. But he is our most recent winner at a road course and he showed strong speed in practice on Saturday. The Trackhouse cars have swept the two road events this year and similar to Chastain, it will be hard to bet against them having good days.
