After a wild race in Indianapolis, sportsbooks are ready for things to return to normal. Chase Elliott is the favorite to take him the victory after finishing outside the top-2 for the first time since June 12th last weekend.
Elliott is given +600 odds, or an implied 14.3% chance to win the race. His biggest competition according to the books is Kyle Busch who’s given +650 odds, or an implied 13.3% chance to win. In total, five drivers are given at least a 10% chance to win, and all five finished outside the top-10 last weekend.
Meanwhile, last week’s winner, Tyler Reddick, is given +1200 odds, or an implied 7.7% chance to win this weekend. Those are Reddick’s best odds to win a race so far this season.
Quote from OddsChecker spokesman Kyle Newman, “Last week’s race was a wild one. Only one driver in the top-10 of the Cup Series Championship finished in the top-10, Joey Logano. None of the top-5 finished in the top-15. Sportsbooks don’t expect that to happen again. They have all the familiar favorites back at the top of the odds market. One minor surprise though is Bubba Wallace nearly making the top-10 at +2500 to take home the victory this week.”
