DraftKings Driver Values: Michigan II, 2015

Here are my DraftKings driver points and price/point predictions for today’s race at Michigan. To predict how many DraftKings points each driver will score today, I plugged my driver rankings for today’s race into my projection model, and Friday’s qualifying results. Then, to calculate each driver’s price/point, I simply divided each driver’s price by their predicted points.

My points projection model is a work in progress, so don’t take the below info as gospel. Still, I think it can provide big-picture help when crafting DraftKings lineups. Note: the below table lists all drivers running today, and it’s sorted from lowest price/point to highest:
