Daytona 500 Favorites

Now that the Speedweeks dust has settled, polesitter Joey Logano and three-time Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin have established themselves as the race favorites at +1000 odds.

Brad Keselowski is alone at +1100, with Kyle Busch right behind at +1200.

Defending Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney and NASCAR's most popular driver Chase Elliott each sit at +1300.

Other notable favorites include Kyle Larson (+1500), Christopher Bell (+1600), Bubba Wallace (+1600) and William Byron (+1800).

Daytona 500 Mid-Tier

The last three Daytona 500 winners have come from the mid-tier of the NASCAR odds board, and despite longer numbers, there's still plenty of talent in this grouping.

2021 Daytona 500 winner Michael McDowell, who will also start second in this year's event, is priced at +2200.

Last year's winner of the Great American Race, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., is +3300, while 2022 Daytona 500 champion Austin Cindric sits at +3500.

Daytona 500 Longshots

Seven-time Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson is available at +5000 after racing his way into the Daytona 500 during Thursday's Bluegreen Vacations Duel.

David Ragan, who has Cup Series wins at Daytona and Talladega and is driving very fast Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing equipment, can be had at +8000 odds.

And if you're into super sleepers, Todd Gilliland is interesting at the very low-risk, high-reward price of +10000.
