Summary
The Cup Series returns to Chicagoland Speedway after a 2,562-day break, with nearly half the field seeing the track for the first time in a Cup race. Kyle Larson, who recently tested here, is primed to make noise, while Denny Hamlin and Tyler Reddick also stand out as top contenders on intermediate tracks. The season’s new “36 for 36” fantasy game adds strategic depth, rewarding long-term planning. Watch for surprises like Alex Bowman, the last winner here, and Brad Keselowski, with a history of top finishes. Avoid risky picks like Joey Logano and Carson Hocevar, whose teams have struggled lately on these surfaces.
