NASCAR Drivers Rolling the Dice To Win Big in Vegas
Favorites Pay Out
Internet favorite Trackhouse Racing-Chevrolet’s Ross Chastain might have led the most laps, but one of the NASCAR Cup Series online sports betting favorites, Richard Childress-Racing’s Kyle Busch, got his first win with a new team landing his ride in Victory Lane in Fontana.
With the win at the final Pala Casino 400, as the Fontana track is set to be converted to a short-track format in 2024, Busch has set the record for winning a Cup Series race in 19 consecutive seasons, passing Richard Petty.
After two rounds of the NASCAR Cup Series regular season, drivers with +1200 odds or higher have won both races. Will this trend continue in Vegas, or will a longshot payout shock the strip?
Let’s check the latest NASCAR news, stats, injury reports, and NASCAR lines for Pennzoil 400. We’ve got plenty of NASCAR picks for you to consider.
As well explore a variety of other Nascar odds here to win!
Will Hendrick Motorsports Win Third Straight Pennzoil 400?
A theme of the NASCAR Cup Series is whether Hendrick Motorsports-Chevrolet’s success will continue. Hendrick Motorsports is among the front runners at every race weekend and has three drivers among the favorites when betting odds are released.
Cup Series favorite Chase Elliott might headline Hendrick Motorsports driver lineup, but previous Pennzoil 400 winner Kyle Larson is a betting favorite to win everything in 2023, and last year’s winner Alex Bowman should be among the betting favorites who could win.
If one of Hendrick Motorsports’ four cars can win in Vegas, it will be the third-straight Cup season the team has won the Pennzoil 400. Hendrick Motorsports are among the betting favorites, and one of its drivers or the team to win should be one of the bets you make on the Pennzoil 400.
Will Team Penske Bounce Back?
After a successful start to the season, Team Penske’s Joey Logano got to start third after NASCAR used the Pandemic Formula to determine the starting order.
After having a good showing and having a driver finish in the top three in the first two stages, Team Penske-Ford didn’t have a great final stage at Fontana, with Logano being the highest finisher on the team finishing 10th, while teammates Ryan Blaney and Austin Cindric finished 26thand 28th.
The three Team Penske-Ford drivers all need a bounce-back weekend, and Blaney and Logano will be among the betting favorites.
However, we’re starting to fade preseason betting favorite Ryan Blaney, who has not been impressive in 2022.
NASCAR Cup Series Pennzoil 400 Previous Results
Seven current NASCAR Cup Series drivers have won at Las Vegas Motorspeedway. Last week’s winner, Busch, won this race in 2009.
Last year’s Pennzoil 400 was won in overtime by Hendrick Motorsports-Chevrolet Alex Bowman, who is among our favorites to win the 2023 Pennzoil 400. Hendrick teammate Kyle Larson won at Vegas in 2021.
Logano is one of seven drivers to win multiple races at Las Vegas and will be looking for his third win in five years, having won back-to-back 400s in 2019-20.
RFK Racing-Ford’s Brad Keselowski (2014, 2016) and Stewart-Haas Racing-Ford’s Kevin Harvick (2015, 2018) have each won at Vegas twice, with the two drivers winning four races in a five-year span.

NASCAR Cup Series Pennzoil 400 Picks and Prediction
Logano is among the favorites and a driver we’re selecting to finish in the top 10 and potentially win the Pennzoil 400. Logano is pursuing a second straight Cup Series Championship and is in championship form to start the season.
A second potential pick is fan-favorite Chase Elliott, who finished second at Fontana. Elliott is going to break through and win a race before too long for Hendrick Motorsports and could do it in Vegas.
