Attachment 3356Jimmie Johnson
NASCAR will not get the showdown they had last year when Carl Edwards and Tony Stewart battled to a tie, but Jimmie Johnson will not go down without a fight.
Last week in Phoenix the No. 48 team had an uncharacteristic bump in their championship road. All weekend the team struggled to find the speed to run up front and only Johnson’s ability to hustle a car kept them in the top 10. But sometimes when you have to push the limits as a driver you see the tires unable to hold up to the extra strain.
This weekend in Homestead-Miami you can count on the No. 48 team to bounce back in a big way. Look for it to be fast right off the truck to attempt to put the pressure on Brad Keselowski. This is as close as team owner Roger Penske has ever gotten to the NASCAR Sprint Cup title so you know they will be on the top of their game this weekend too. It should be an epic battle. Johnson is likely to win the battle but I think Keselowski will win the war and earn the NASCAR Sprint Cup title.
Good luck with your fantasy racing picks this week and don’t forget to send in your pick for “Whiteboard Fantasy Racing” this week for Miami.
