Fantasy NASCAR Asterisk Mark Report – Richmond #2 2021

Kyle Busch – Last fall at Richmond, Kyle Busch might’ve just had the best car, but his race wasn’t incident free and he finished an asterisk mark 9th! In the race, Busch got not one, but two pit road penalties. Busch got his first pit road penalty during the lap 25 competition caution which sent him to the back (was in 10th prior). Busch then marched up towards the front and finished 2nd in Stage #2. In the final Stage, Busch led 39 laps and was the leader at the time of the final round of green flag pit stops, but then was busted speeding on pit road. When the checkered flag waved, Busch finished 9th.

Kurt Busch – Kurt Busch looked great at Richmond last fall and looked like a top five contender, but his evening was cut short. On lap 40 while running in 3rd, Busch had a flat tire and crashed into the wall hard which led to his 37th place finish.

Bubba Wallace – Last fall at Richmond, Bubba Wallace had teens potential, but he finished a clunker 32nd after having a tire go down on lap 250. On lap 245 just prior to his problem, Wallace was running in 17th.
