This weekend, we head to Las Vegas, Nevada for the Pennzoil 400. The race is Sunday at 3:30pm ET on FS1. Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a 1.5-mile intermediate track. The best comp is Kansas, with Texas and Charlotte after that. With a little more tire wear now, I’ll even mix a little Darlington and Homestead date into my model. This is the same right-side tire they ran both times at Las Vegas last season. The left-side tire is a softer tire they ran at Charlotte, Darlington, and Homestead last season. With this being our first intermediate track of the season, I’ll be weighing practice a little more than usual. I’ll be looking at recent Las Vegas data, Las Vegas/Kansas data, the higher-speed intermediates (Kansas, Vegas, Charlotte, Texas), practice, and a few other things when building lineups.

NASCAR DFS Picks: Pennzoil 400

The stages are 80, 85, and 102, which is a total of 267 laps. With 267 laps, we’re looking at 26.7 laps led and 26.7 laps completed points on FanDuel. On DraftKings, we’re looking at 120.15 fastest lap points and 66.75 laps led points. There have been at least 2 dominators in 9 of the last 10 races here. Bell dominated the fall race, and fuel strategy mixed up the dominators a little. It was one of our only 1-dominator races on a 1.5-mile tracks with the Next-Gen era.
