Last week, NASCAR hosted its biggest event of this year at the Daytona 500, and it was about as unpredictable as one could expect.Denny Hamlin, a man known as a king of the restrictor-plate races, took home the win as a massive crash knocked out a huge portion of the area down the stretch.

As intermediate racing starts this week at Atlanta Motor Speedway, there will be kings on the track.

Kevin Harvick is your clear favorite at 4/1 chances with eight top-10 finishes in his last 10 races and just two career wins over the track there. Kyle Busch and Joey Logano both have 6/1 chances, while Busch also includes two wins at AMS and five top 10s in his last 10 races. Logano has no wins, but four finishes.

And while Martin Truex Jr. and Brad Keselowski can get lost in the shuffle, they are more than powerful in Georgia.

So who wins this week? Kyle Larson is due for a win, although it may be foolish to pick against Harvick. Atlanta would be the place for him to find Victory Lane, although the 26-year-old went without a win year. Larson includes a second place finish in five career races at AMS and three top-10 finishes.

The odds are posted for this weekend’s race at Martinsville Speedway and there’s a clear-cut pre-race gaming favourite… and it’s not last year’s race winner, Clint Bowyer. Beyond this, two drivers started 5-1 odds, according to Westgate’s opening lines, but many other big names took a tumble on the likelihood board as the show heads to its very first short track of this year. Scroll through to sharpen up about the chances for Sunday, which we’ve updated on race day.

Kyle Busch wanted to return to a”real” race track after his loss at Talladega Sunday and this weekend he will get his wish at Kansas Speedway’s 1.5-mile circuit beneath the lights for Saturday night’s Go Bowling 400.

Busch will attempt to defend his victory in the Kansas spring race Saturday. He struggled at Kansas but appears to have figured out it recently. He’s logged a top-five end in his last four starts there but is still looking for his first win of the season.

Kevin Harvick has had recent success at Kansas, finishing first or second in five of his final seven starts while Joey Logano has put in the top five of his last seven starts in the Sunflower State, including two wins.

It is no surprise the trio of veterans are among the favorites to win Saturday night (7:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1).

There are just two weeks left before NASCAR’s playoffs start and there are still plenty of automatic bids left to the taking. Denny Hamlin must be thrilled the tour is headed back to Darlington Raceway.

The defending champion of the Bojangles Southern 500, Hamlin is second among active drivers with two wins in the 1.366-mile monitor and he’s seven top 5s and 10 top 10s to go with it at 12 career races at the monitor. He’s finished in the top 3 in four of his last six races at Darlington and top 4 in five of the last six on that track.

The 38-year-old needs to be thrilled to make his way to South Carolina this week because he looks for his first victory of the season in addition to an automatic berth into the playoffs. But with only 3 finishes within the top 10 in his past six races, he isn’t performing at his best.

The Big 3 of Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. do Exactly That. All three have wins on the track in their professions and have combined for 11 top 5s and 24 top 10s at Darlington Raceway. Busch is second among active drivers at motorist rating in the South Carolina track (105.1) and he’s our choice to win the Bojangles Southern 500.

The following drivers aren’t among the favorites, but may present good price.

The Big 3 will appear to continue their dominance as NASCAR heads into the second road-course race of this year: the GoBowling at the Glen 220.

Even though Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. are the favorites once more, on this 2.45-mile monitor at Watkins Glen there are bound to be a few drivers, which one might not anticipate, threatening the leaders.

AJ Allmendinger has only two top-10 finishes this year, however using four top-10s in his past five races at the Glen including a win in 2014, he will be at or near the top all day as his competitive nature plays nicely on those street courses – even when Watkins Glen isn’t as technically challenging as Sonoma.

Denny Hamlin might not be the same type of sleeper selection as Allmendinger, but with five top-10 finishes – including four in the top 5 in his past five road-course races – the 37-year-old has to be optimistic that he could grab his first win of the season in New York on Sunday.

NASCAR is currently taking a break and this weekend’s event heads into the half-mile place at Bristol Motor Speedway.

While the racing will be shifting up a bit at the moment, the storylines remain virtually the same: Kyle Busch has had one of the best cars every week, Kevin Harvick is still searching for his first triumph and Brad Keselowski and Denny Hamlin will probably be lurking for their third successes. The past is the past and Busch has all the background together with seven career wins in the trail with 10 5s and 15 top 10s to his name there, also. He will be searching for his third win and won last year’s race at the spring , however it should also be noted he’s crushed in Bristol in three of his last eight races, therefore there’s some danger here.

Harvick has been the very best in terms of consistency in memory, although keselowski and Hamlin do have the exact same track record since Busch in the track. He has just two wins there and hasn’t finished outside the top 10 in his past seven races.

History says he should factor to the triumph, but he simply has had the car this season, to acquire and that cannot be dismissed. So until Harvick proves he can find a win it’s really difficult to predict him making it to victory lane.

We are going with Busch since he enjoys Bristol, has the auto and has factored into the laps at each race he’s been in this year by the Cup Series on to the Trucks.

The drivers aren’t among the favorites, but may present decent value, with odds provided from the Westgate in Las Vegas.

Ryan Newman: 50-1 (opened at 40-1)

Austin Dillon 40-1

Matt DiBenedetto 30-1 (opened in 40-1)

If you’re betting the Phoenix NASCAR race of Sunday, 1 motorist is offering value that is too much to pass up.
By searching for the best line and using historic data from ISM Raceway, we pinpoint which driver to wager for your 2019 TicketGuardian 500 (3:30 p.m. ET, FOX).
Among the easiest ways is to shop for the line. “Shopping” only identifies searching for the bet you like as many sportsbooks as possible, then taking the best possible line or chances available.

In football and basketball, this frequently means grabbing an additional. As an example, if you prefer the Patriots to cover the spread against the Dolphins and most sportsbooks have the lineup at New England -7, but one publication is offering Pats -6.5, you would wish to choose the -6.5.

That extra half-point represents”line value” when compared to the rest of the gaming market which sits , nevertheless costs you nothing more than simply taking a few minutes to shop for whichever book is offering the ideal line. When gambling smaller sports like NASCAR — also known as”niche markets” — that the gap between lines from sportsbook to sportsbook could be even bigger, meaning there is even more potential value available for your committed line shopper.

For today’s TicketGuardian 500 at ISM Raceway, a cost is being offered by the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas on Chase Elliott that is just too good to pass up for any value-minded NASCAR bettor.

As of 8:40 a.m. ET, Elliott is available at 20-1 in Westgate. I haven’t seen him anywhere near that across the remainder of the betting market. For instance, the MGM casinos possess listed at 8-1.

Kyle Busch swept to his very first Coca-Cola 600 win — and first career win at Charlotte Motor Speedway — at 2018, giving him a career sweep of every active track on the NASCAR circuit (at least before the Roval popped up in the fall). The Dragon Energy Series now just has one race on Charlotte’s 1.5-mile oval, also Busch returns as the betting favorite — but pole sitter William Byron makes the biggest leap, by far, after winning the Busch Pole Award.
