Fantasy NASCAR Asterisk Mark Report – Bristol

Kyle Busch – Last summer at Bristol Kyle Busch was the class of the field but walked away with a misleading 39th place result. His asterisk mark result is the product of a parts failure that led to him wrecking. Prior to his track bar breaking on lap 358 he led a race high 256 laps. It should be noted it’s not often a driver who finishes 39th earns the 2nd best driver rating. If he didn’t have that parts failure there’s no question he was the driver to beat.
