Here are the top fantasy picks for the 2016 NASCAR All-Star Race.

It’s time for a break in the schedule for the Sprint Cup Series, as the best drivers of NASCAR will be racing in the 2016 NASCAR All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Saturday.

Unlike the other races in the Sprint Cup Series, the All-Star Race features a condensed field and everyone has to earn their spot in the race for $1 million.

The race will feature past champions, previous All-Star Race winners and then the final four spots will be decided in a showdown on Friday night. A fan vote will also determine the final driver in the race.

While the race will be a fun one to watch, there are still some places for people to make their fantasy picks on the race. In a race like this, there’s more competition because of the fact that it is an exclusive list of drivers.

The best picks to make in the All-Star Race this week are the heavy favorites going into the race. Kyle Busch, who has won the most races on the year, is a great fantasy pick. Jimmie Johnson and Kevin Harvick are seen as heavy Vegas favorites and that makes them great fantasy picks as well.

As for a darkhorse in the race, Brad Keselowski is another solid pick and he’s put together some great runs this year.
