This is the track history layer for the Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway. Every driver ranking is built strictly from Darlington race shape over the last two seasons — where each driver ran, how they held or lost track position, and how their cars behaved over a run. This is the foundation, not the final call. Denny Hamlin: stable top-10 type with clean Darlington fit. Spring 2025 he stayed attached all day and won with an average running position of 8.19. Fall 2025 he drove forward late from 24th to finish 7th. Betting lean: clean top-10 profile, safer placement lean than outright win lean. William Byron: real control upside with front-end speed. Spring 2025 he started first, led 243 laps, and finished second with an average running position of 1.51. Fall 2025 was a mixed 21st. Betting lean: real win equity if long-run speed shows up in practice. Tyler Reddick: stable top-10 type with clean track fit. Spring 2025 he finished 4th with an average running position of 6.95, leading 42 laps. Fall 2025 he finished 2nd with an average running position of 4.59. Kyle Larson: volatile track-position profile. Spring 2025 he started 19th, ran 38th at the midpoint, finished 37th, led zero laps. Fall 2025 he lost track position and finished 19th. Track history alone does not put him on the card. Chase Briscoe: proven control upside with unstable floor. Fall 2025 he started 2nd, ran 1st at midpoint, led 309 laps, and won. Spring 2025 he lost track position and finished 28th. Christopher Bell: volatile profile. Spring 2025 mixed day finishing 3rd from 17th. Fall 2025 lost track position to finish 29th. Track history alone is not enough for a strong bet. Chris Buescher: mover profile who gets better as races stretch. Spring 2025 drove forward from 14th to finish 6th with average running position of 8.10. Fall 2025 finished 10th. Bubba Wallace: mixed signal. Spring 2025 finished 21st. Fall 2025 stayed attached and finished 6th with an average running position of 6.18. Ross Chastain: forward mover. Spring 2025 started 25th and finished 7th. Fall 2025 finished 11th with an average running position of 5.55. Ryan Blaney: mid-pack profile. Spring 2025 stayed attached to finish 5th from 9th. Fall 2025 mixed 18th. Chase Elliott: mid-pack profile. Spring 2025 finished 8th. Fall 2025 finished 17th. Joey Logano: volatile, lost track position in both recent Darlington starts. Kyle Busch: mover who improves as races stretch, Spring 2025 drove forward late to finish 10th, Fall 2025 finished 8th from 23rd.
