Patrick placed 16th here last year out of 18 drivers. With the bigger field this season, look for here to finish at the bottom of the pack.

Stenhouse Jr. just beat out his girlfriend, Danica Patrick, at the Sprint Unlimited last year by finishing 15th. He will struggle again this year and likely finish at the back of the field.

Almirola won’t be a serious threat in this race. He only registered seven top-10 finishes all of last year and will struggle with the big names ahead of him this Saturday.

MTJ had another disastrous 2014 campaign. He has become one of the most inconsistent drivers on the circuit and will be a serious high-risk driver for the Sprint Unlimited.

21. Paul Menard

Menard didn’t crack the top-15 at Daytona during both the full-length races during the season. He is normally a strong sleeper, but he never shows up on this track.

Stewart finished 11th at the Sprint Unlimited in 2014. He also finished 35th and 40th at Daytona during the season. Considering Stewart’s recent performance, he will be a long shot to even crack the top-15.

Mears shockingly placed 10th and fourth during the regular Daytona races last year. He will be a great sleeper to look for this week.

Kahne recorded a seventh place finish at the Sprint Unlimited in 2013, but he finished 13th in 2012 and 24th in 2011. He will be worth a shot as a second driver, but he will be too risky to grab as a top driver.

McMurray placed sixth here in 2014 and second back in 2011. His past success in this race will keep him ranked with the top-15.

Larson came on strong by cracking the top-15 in 11 of last 13 races of the 2014 season. He is in for a break out season, so expect him to be a popular mid-level sleeper this week in Daytona.

10. Ryan Newman

Johnson has seriously struggled in this competition in recent years. He placed 17th in 2014, 14th in 2013 and 14th in 2012. He is still worth grabbing as a first driver, but he will obviously come with some risk.

7. Matt Kenseth

Kenseth finished 10th here in 2014, fifth in 2013 and 13th in 2011. He will be a dark horse to win it all this Saturday.
