NASCAR Cup Series Betting Odds for Verizon 200

NASCAR Cup Series Betting Odds for Verizon 200

Written by on August 11, 2023

There are a lot of races over the course of the Cup Series season, and while some are certainly more iconic than others, they are all important in their own right. Drivers don’t have to win every week to be in the playoffs, but they do need to pick up points on a consistent basis if they are to be a part of the postseason excitement. With the regular season winding down, the number of spots up for grabs is diminishing rapidly, so the pressure is rising for those drivers still sitting below the cut line. This Sunday, the Cup Series heads to the Brickyard for the Verizon 200, which is being raced on a road course. Let’s take a look at who the bookies have among the favorites to win in your NASCAR betting odds.

Martin Truex Jr.

NASCAR Betting Pick: +430

Toward the end of last season, there was talk that Truex Jr. might retore. He was coming off a disappointing season, missing the playoffs for the first time since 2014. His decision to return is now looking like a stroke of genius, as he is sitting atop the driver standings at this late stage of the season. He is also the favorite to win on Sunday, which is perhaps not surprising when you consider that 1 of his 3 wins this season came on a road course. That said, he was not particularly good at the Brickyard in 2022, but let’s not forget that it came in the midst of a poor season by his high standards.

Tyler Reddick

NASCAR Betting Pick: +510

One thing you notice when NASCAR runs on a road course is that you often see some favorites who are not usually this high up on the bookies board. Racing on a road course requires a whole different set of skills that what we see on the traditional oval course, with some drivers simply better suited to this style of racing. Reddick is one of those guys, but he is among the favorites for a reason, as his last 2 Cup Series wins have come on a road course, including at the Brickyard in 2022.

Shane Van Gisbergen

NASCAR Betting Pick: +620

If you don’t really follow motorsports outside of NASCAR, this is a driver that you may not be too familiar with, as Van Gisbergen races with Supercars, where he has won each of the last 2 championships and is on pace for a 3rd straight. That said, he did run in the Cup Series earlier this season, taking the checkered flag on the Chicago street course. Racing so sparingly at this level makes it tough to win, but this is a guy who has proven that he is tough to beat on the road, so he might be worth a look.

Chase Elliott

NASCAR Betting Pick: +700

Earlier in this piece, we spoke a little about the pressure that drivers below the playoff cut line must be feeling right now. Chase Elliott is one of those guys, and while it is surprising to see him there, it is because he missed 7 races through injury and suspension this season. He needs a win in the worst possible way if he is to climb into the top 16. Who knows what might happen in the postseason, so getting in is critical for a driver as talented as Elliott. He has been good on road courses in the past, so I might be tempted to take a shot with him at these odds.
