Infineon Toyota / Save Mart 350: Fantasy NASCAR “Top Tier Elite” Picks
Marcos Ambrose – Ambrose has raced at Infineon four times and he’s been good in all of them, even when he finished 42nd (transmission failure, Yahoo! race chart). In 2010 Marcos Ambrose had this race won but he made a bad judgment call by turning off his car while leading late under caution (didn’t maintain track position, finished 6th). Last year Marcos Ambrose finished 5th, but he was never really a challenger for the win. In fairness though that was his first road course race in an RPM car. I think Macros Ambrose will strongly be considered a favorite to win by experts following his win at Watkins Glen last year. At The Glen Ambrose has 2.3 average finish. When you take away his transmission failure at Infineon a few years ago his overall road course average finish is 3.3. (Yahoo! B Driver)

Jimmie Johnson – In 2010 Jimmie Johnson got his long-awaited and justifying road course win at Sonoma. It should be noted though and perhaps asterisked that it wouldn’t of happened if Macros Ambrose didn’t shut off his engine during a late caution while attempting to coast up a hill. Last year Johnson finished 7th and had a strong car all afternoon (Yahoo! Race Chart). No driver has been better than Johnson in the last three races here. In this short time span he has a 4th place average finish and a 119.2 driver rating (best in both categories). Johnson is also one of only three drivers who have three consecutive top ten finishes at Infineon, the others are Jeff Gordon and Marcos Ambrose. (Yahoo! A Driver)
