We are getting done to the wire in the Cup Series season, which means that the drivers at or below the playoff cut line have to be beginning to feel the pressure. There are still enough races for those drivers to make a move, as getting a win essentially makes the final 16 a bit of a lock. From that point forward, anything can happen, so it’s all about getting in and trying to make something happen. This weekend, the Cup Series will be in Atlanta for the Quaker State 400, which could well mean that one driver might have an edge over the rest, which we will get to in a moment. The odds for this race are now on the board, so let’s take a look at who the bookies believe to be the major players to bet on against their NASCAR odds.
NASCAR Cup Series: Quaker State 400 | NASCAR Lines by MyBookie
When: Sunday July 9 at 7:00 pm
Where: Atlanta Motor Speedway
TV / Streaming: USA
Radio: PRN, SiriusXM
Chase Elliott
NASCAR Betting Pick: +1050
One driver that really needs a win more than most is Elliott. He has missed 7 races this season through injury and suspension, but he does have an exemption that would allow him to take part in the playoffs, assuming he can get in. the best way to do that is to win, and how special would it be to get that all-important win in his home state of Georgia. The crowd will almost certainly be on his side, but will that be enough? Elliott won this race in 2022 and is the favorite again, so it does look as though the stars might be aligning for him.

Kyle Busch
NASCAR Betting Pick: +1100
Busch already has 3 wins this season and is currently sitting 3rd overall in the driver standings, so the playoffs are not really a concern for him at this point. That said, you don’t ever want to take your foot off the gas, as the last thing any driver wants to do is go into the Round of 16 on a cold streak. Busch is the furthest thing from cold right now, though, as he is on a streak that has seen him finish no worse than 9th in each of the last 6 races, with 1 win included in that mix. He has had some success in Atlanta, so a top 5 wager might not be a bad way to go.

Joey Logano
NASCAR Betting Pick: +1250
The defensing champion is looking to take another run at the Cup Series title, but he is going to need to come from behind to make that happen. Logano finds himself down in 9th in the driver standings, but with a win under his belt this season, he looks to be comfortable. Still, he would like to move up a little higher and buy himself some breathing space in the standings. I’m not so sure that he can do that this weekend, though, as Atlanta has not been very kind to him over the years.

Ryan Blaney
NASCAR Betting Pick: +1250
Blaney is sitting just ahead of Logano in the standings, and while he also looks to be in good shape for the playoffs, he could also use an uptick in form. He has been very much on the outside looking in over the last 3 races, which has to make bettors a little nervous when looking to play this race. That said, he finished in the top 5 in Atlanta last year and took the win the year prior. A top 5 bet might be a wager worth placing.
