This weekend, we head to Charlotte for the Bank of America ROVAL 400. The race is Sunday at 3pm ET on USA. This is the last race of the round of 12, and after this weekend, there are only 4 more races left in the 2025 NASCAR season. With the new road course tire, we did see a little more fall off in practice. It’s still tough to say with most drivers only running 10-15 laps. With this being the last race of this round, we’re going to see all kinds of strategies. Ryan Blaney and Chase Elliot are locked into the round of 8. Outside of him, Larson +54, Hamlin +48, Bell +44, and Byron +40 are all but locked in. Chase Briscoe +21 and Joey Logano +13 are on the bubble. I think both drivers try to get as many stage points as possible. Ross Chastain is -13 to Logano, and I would be shocked if he’s not on the stage point strategy. I think Wallace -26, Reddick -29, and Cindric -48 are in must-win mode unless something happens early. Non-playoff drivers will likely short pit for track position, which makes it a very interesting race for lineup construction. I will be using recent ROVAL data, recent road course data, practice, recent speed, and a few other things when building lineups this weekend.

NASCAR DFS Picks: Bank of America ROVAL 400

The stages are 25, 25, and 59, which is a total of 109 laps. With 109 laps, we’re looking at 10.9 laps led points and 10.9 laps completed on FanDuel this weekend. We’re looking at 49.05 fastest lap points and 27.25 laps led points on DraftKings. I think we’re looking for place differential, finishing potential, and lap leaders this weekend.
