NASCAR Betting: Harvick tagged with shortest odds of the season for Sunday’s O’Reilly Auto Parts 500. MORE:
VIDEO SIGN OUTThe driver of the No. 9 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports returned to Victory Lane on Wednesday for the first time since he won at Charlotte on May 27th.
This is just the fourth time since the restart that a driver has been listed at shorter than 4/1 odds to win a Cup Series race.11 days later, Kyle Busch was +350 to win at Bristol – he placed fourth.+275 translates to a 26.7 percent implied probability that Harvick will win the O’Reilly Auto Parts 500.
Busch is already threatening for the fourth-longest drought by any defending Cup Series champion over the past two decades.Only Harvick has shorter odds to win the O’Reilly Auto Parts 500.Now he will attempt to double down with an opportunity to pull ahead of Harvick for the outright lead in Cup Series wins this season.That likely wouldn’t be the case if Hamlin hadn’t wrecked late at Indianapolis and opened the door for Harvick to take the checkered flag.
While he’s still looking for his first win of the season, he has produced five top-five results in his last seven Cup Series starts.His runner-up finish in the AAA Texas 500 last season is his best result at this track.At the very least, he’s definitely in play for another top-10 finish.Jones has really struggled of late, finishing outside the top-20 in four of his last seven starts.
