We are getting down to the wire in the Cup Series regular season, and for those below the playoff cut line, the time to make a move is running out. This weekend delivers another tricky challenge for the drivers, as we are heading to a road course for the second straight week of action. This time around, it will be a trip around the Watkins Glen circuit, with valuable points up for grabs. As all NASCAR fans are well aware, the road course races offer a unique challenge that is better suited to some drivers than others. That will be reflected in the race odds for this coming Sunday, which we are going to get to now. Let’s take a look at the current NASCAR picks of the favorites to win the Go Bowling at the Glen race this weekend.

When: Sunday August 20 at 3:00pm ET
Where: Watkins Glen International Raceway
TV / Streaming: USA
Radio: MRN, SiriusXM
Chase Elliott
NASCAR Betting Pick: +340
If anyone needs a win more than Elliott this weekend, it’s tough to imagine who it might be. The former champion is sitting below the playoff line, thanks in large part to missing 7 races through injury and suspension. The pressure is very much on for Elliott, who can make it into the top 16 with a win this weekend, but this is a driver who has a very decent record on road courses. That said, he is still looking for his first win of the season, which is a little surprising when you consider his track record. Elliott finished 2nd last weekend on a road course and was 4th in this race in 2022.

Kyle Larson
NASCAR Betting Pick: +530
There are zero playoff concerns for Larson, as he comes into this weekend sitting 4th overall in the driver standings. As good as that may be, he will still want to close out the regular season on a good run of form that he hopes will carry over into the postseason. It’s been a minute since Larson last took a checkered flag, but there are some signs that he might be coming around, as he has finished in the top 10 in each of his last 2 races. Even bigger, though, is the fact that he won this race last year.

Martin Truex Jr.
NASCAR Betting Pick: +680
What looked like mission impossible for Truex Jr. at the end of last season might actually be about to come true. After a disappointing 2022 season, there was the belief that Truex Jr. might call time on his Cup Series career, but he decided to have another go and that decision is looking to be a stroke of absolute genius. He comes into this season with 3 wins under his belt and the lead in driver standings. One of those wins came on a road course in Sonoma, so could he get another W this weekend?

Tyler Reddick
NASCAR Betting Pick: +730
Reddick is sitting in the top 10, albeit only just, in the driver standings, despite having a bit of an up and down season as times. He does have a win under his belt in 2023, with that one coming on the road course at the Circuit of the Americas. In fact, over the last couple of seasons, Reddick has picked up 4 wins in the Cup Series, 3 of which came on road courses. These are very good odds for a guy that tends to do well when not racing on an oval.
