Matt Kenseth is the best driver that no one talks about. It seems as though Kenseth is battling for a championship every season, yet the other drivers are the ones who receive the most press. Maybe that is because Kenseth has only won one championship and that was nine years ago.
Kenseth is one of the best drivers on the mile and half tracks. He has had some luck on the superspeedways, but his racing at those tracks has been hit or miss. If Kenseth could improve on the road courses and the superspeedways, he would fall into the category of Carl Edwards and Jimmy Johnson…. a driver who could win on any track.
Kenseth will make the Chase in 2012, and he could be a driver who dominates the mile and half tracks and wins the championship.
