NASCAR will spend this weekend in Kansas City, as the Kansas Speedway will host the races, culminating in the Cup Series AdventHealth 400 on Sunday. The race starts at 3:00 pm Eastern time, and you can watch it on FS1. Those who want to listen can tune into the Motor Racing Network affiliate in their area or the SiriusXM app. Last week, Martin Truex Jr won the Wurth 400, which was pushed to Monday after rain forced postponement of Sunday’s scheduled race. Martin Truex Jr roared to victory after starting 17th, moving into the lead with 69 laps left, leading 68 of those to take his first points-earning win of 2023, ending a winless streak that had run 54 races. It helped that he opted to take just right-side tires in a pit stop during the last caution period. That made the stop quick enough for him to beat the rest of the drivers onto the track and keep Ross Chastain from blowing by him. Who can win at Kansas this week? We have the NASCAR betting odds for the field as well as suggestions for your wagers.

Kyle Larson
had quite a few DNFs in 2022, but he’s getting back to his 2021 form, when he won the championship. This year, in 11 races, he has finished on the lead lap five times and has won two races.
William Byron
came in fourth at Kansas last fall and was the runner-up in the 2021 fall race. In this racing package, he might have the fastest car in the field. Last week, he led the most laps, and Dover was also an intermediate-track package event.
Ross Chastain
has built a list of enemies in the Cup Series. So far, there haven’t been many drivers who have wanted to get back at him. He was involved in another incident at Dover, though, so there may be more people who want to hurt his chances.
Denny Hamlin
has two wins at Kansas in the last seven events, and he has finished in the top ten in all of them.
Martin Truex Jr
was finally able to pull out a win last week, and he could make it back-to-back victories, given how similar Kansas is to Dover.
Christopher Bell
finished in the top five in both Kansas races last year, and he’s getting closer and closer to his first victory on an intermediate track.
Chase Elliott
has six top-five finishes and one victory in the last 11 races at Kansas.
Kyle Busch
has finished in the top three in the last two spring races at Kansas, and he won here in the spring 2021 event.
Tyler Reddick
is in a 23XI Toyota, the same type of car that won both of the Kansas races in 2022, with Kurt Busch taking the spring race and Bubba Wallace taking the fall one. The track has a quick groove up on the wall and progressive banking, both of which matches Reddick’s driving technique.
Joey Logano
has had disappointing results the past few weeks, and he has dropped down the odds list. Remember, though, that he is the defending Cup Series champion, and now that he has value, he might be a smart pick.
Bubba Wallace
won here in the fall, giving him legitimacy in the Cup Series.
