It's official...Brad Keselowski will be in the #6 for Roush Fenway Racing in 2022.
He also now has a minor ownership stake in Roush Fenway Racing.
The big question is where will Ryan Newman be in 2022 since he lost the #6 ride?

Congratulations to 'johnnycuda' (FABO) for winning the 'Top Qualifier' title for the U.S. Nationals at Indianapolis with a very nice total of 29.0 bonus points.
'cuda20' (FABO) and 'Duster79' (FABO) shared the runner-up qualifier spot with 28.0 bonus points.
Great picks all!

We have 14 players this week and 12 different driver combos made up of:
* 3 different Top Fuel drivers with no head-to-head matchup in the opening round of eliminations. The earliest possibility of a head-to-head matchup is in the semi-final round of eliminations if both drivers survive the first two rounds.
* 5 different Funny Car drivers with no head-to-head matchups in the opening round of eliminations. There is a possibility of two head-to-head matchups in the Round 2 of eliminations if all drivers survive Round 1.
* 3 different Pro Stock drivers with no head-to-head matchup in opening round of eliminations. The earliest possibility of a head-to-head matchup is in the semi-final round of eliminations if both drivers survive the first two rounds.
* 6 different Pro Stock Motorcycle drivers with one head-to-head matchup in the opening round of eliminations between team mates: #1 qualifier Eddie Krawiec (4 picks) and Andrew Hines (1 pick). There is also a possibility of two head-to-head matchups in Round 2 of eliminations.

Good luck all!

JMO, but it's a shame that an event as prestigious as the U.S. Nationals was limited to only a single round of Pro qualifying. I know NHRA did not schedule final eliminations on Monday this year, probably to reduce both racer expenses and their own. But Monday eliminations would have allowed a reschedule of Sunday activities to allow for additional qualifying rounds after the Saturday rain.
