Brad Keselowski
Mexico City Outlook = Road Course racing often isn’t pretty for Brad Keselowski, so buckle up if you’re thinking of picking him and personally, I think it’s best to just avoid him outright. 2025 has already been a brutal year for him so it’s not hard to foresee something going bad. Since 2024 at road courses, Keselowski has a 21.7 average finish and ranks 22nd in terms of Total Speed Rankings. Over the last five on this track type, Keselowski’s average finish is marginally better at 19th, and included in that tally is a 15th at COTA this spring which is his second best result on the track type since 2024. At Mexico City, just pencil Keselowski in as a bottom half of the field driver and avoid the incoming pain.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
Mexico City Outlook = At Mexico City, I have low expectations for Ricky Stenhouse and heading into the weekend I think he’s a high-teens to low 20’s driver. At road courses since 2024 minus Watkins Glen where he crashed on the opening lap, Stenhouse has a 21.5 average finish and his per race average speed ranking is 24.8. This spring at COTA, Stenhouse finished 18th and had a 25.2 average running position.

Justin Haley
Mexico City Outlook = I have mid-pack expectations with Justin Haley at Mexico City. Since 2024 on this track type, Haley hasn’t cracked the top 15 once, ranks 24th in terms of Track Type Total Speed Rankings and over the last four races his average finish is 21.75. At COTA to start 2025 on this track type, Haley finished 16th. With the #7 team not exactly running well right now, it’s hard to see any upside from him.
