Kwik Trip 250 pre-race favorites

Chase Elliott (+500)

Elliott won the Ally 400 to earn his second checkered flag of 2022 — making him the fifth driver on the circuit to win two races this season — and is atop the NASCAR Cup Series standings. As a result, he is the slight betting favorite as the series travels into Wisconsin for the Kwik Trip 250 this Sunday.

The 26-year-old has rebounded from a rough three-race stretch where he finished worse than 20th each time out. Prior to his victory in Nashville, Elliott finished eighth at the Toyota/Save Mart 350. His status as a narrow favorite is reflective of how tightly packed the top of the leaderboard is through 17 races. Ross Chastain, Ryan Blaney, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, Kyle Larson, and Martin Truex Jr. are all within 70 points of the top spot.

Elliott won this race a year ago, which was the first time it had been held since 1956.

Kyle Larson (+600)

The reigning Cup Series champion, Larson hasn't looked like a sure bet to repeat in 2022. He's among the top contenders, and he's still the overall betting favorite to win the whole thing, but he hasn't won since the WISE Power 400 — the second race of the season.

Larson finished fourth in Nashville last week but was 16th in this event a year ago. He entered the Ally 400 as the favorite to win, but he needs a statement victory to show his status as the top driver in the field remains warranted.

Ross Chastain (+800)

Chastain continues to enjoy a breakout racing season. He's picked up his first two career wins and has finished within the Top 5 on eight different occasions. Looking back to 2021, Chastain had one of his better showings of the year at Road America, finishing seventh. 

Now ranked second in the overall Cup Series standings, Chastain is in the hunt and aiming to be the first driver of 2022 to win three separate races.

Kyle Busch (+900)

Despite being fourth in the overall standings, Busch has just one trip to Victory Lane under his belt for the season and has stumbled in back-to-back weeks, finishing outside the Top 20 at both Nashville and Sonoma.

Prior to that, however, Busch rattled off three straight podium finishes and finished third at the Kwik Trip 250 in 2021 (it was called the Jockey Made in America 250, though). The veteran driver has stayed in the hunt even if wins have been generally elusive.

How to bet on NASCAR

The most popular way to bet on NASCAR is by simply picking the winner of a race, which is also referred to as an outright. There are plenty of other ways to wager, including betting on whether or not a driver will finish in the Top 3 or Top 10 of a race.

Another popular betting option is head-to-head matchup betting, where sportsbooks pair up two drivers and you choose who you think will finish better in the race, which is far easier than trying to select someone to win out of a field of approximately 40 drivers.
