Here’s a look at who the NBC Sports staff is picking to win today’s Cup race at Auto Club Speedway.
Nate Ryan
Kevin Harvick. Just like Atlanta, he proves no one is better at tire management in Cup.
Dustin Long
Martin Truex Jr. swoops in and ends Kevin Harvick’s streak.
Daniel McFadin
I’m going with the hot hand. No, not Kevin Harvick. Kyle Larson, the winner of four consecutive races at 2-mile tracks.
Jerry Bonkowski
While I wanted to stay with Jimmie Johnson until he finally won a race, I’m going in a different direction and picking Kyle Larson to win this one.
