The Likely Suspects: Welcome to the second year of NASCAR's version of the playoffs -- The Chase. The first race in the Challenger round is the perfect time for non-Chase spoilers to show their stuff while the Chase drivers are just anxious for a quick win to get them in the next round. This all spells drama and exciting racing. My eye will be on those five drivers who made it in on points: Clint Bowyer, Ryan Newman, Paul Menard, Jamie McMurray and Jeff Gordon. Look for these drivers who perform well in Chicagoland to spoil their day: Brad Keselowski, Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch and Matt Kenseth.
My 2 Cents: My no-brainer pick is Brad Keselowski. My next picks are Ryan Newman, Clint Bowyer, Martin Truex Jr., Kurt Busch and Kyle Larson. I will complete my team with Ryan Blaney and Justin Allgaier,
My final four: Brad Keselowski, Clint Bowyer, Martin Truex Jr. and Justin Allgaier.
