George Russell
AVG Start: 8.0
AVG Finish: 4.0
Season Standings: 4th
Fantasy Points: 120
In an incident filled Friday afternoon, it was George Russell who topped FP2 and finished P2 in FP1. Mercedes looks to have found some speed entering the first ever Miami Grand Prix. With an average finish of 4.0, Russell has managed to consistently provide strong results despite a tough start to the year for Mercedes and his 7-time World Champion teammate Lewis Hamilton.
NASCAR
Kyle Larson
AVG Start: 9.0
AVG Finish: 15.1
Season Standings: 8th
Fantasy Points: 331
Larson boasts five Top-5's and seven Top-10's in just eight starts at Darlington Raceway. After a roller coaster of a start to the 2022 season, the 5 team has finally hit their stride as they scored their third straight Top-10 last week at Dover. Don't be surprised to see Kyle Larson in victory lane again soon.
Trending DOWN 📉 F1
Max Verstappen
AVG Start: 2.25
AVG Finish: 9.75
Season Standings: 2nd
Fantasy Points: 116
Verstappen and Red Bull's reliability issues strike once again during FP2 in Miami. Verstappen has already racked up two DNFs this year in just four starts. On the bright side, he also has two victories. Red Bull still has some issues to work out before Verstappen is a safe lock-in. However, if he finishes the race he'll likely be up front.
NASCAR
Denny Hamlin
AVG Start: 13.5
AVG Finish: 22.5
Standings: 23rd
Fantasy Points: 204
Despite winning the most recent race at the track 'Too Tough to Tame', Denny Hamlin is having quite the abysmal year. Even a win at Richmond earlier this spring is not enough to keep him in the top 20 this season. The 11 team is unusually off the pace this year and should be avoided until they find some consistency.
