NASCAR betting odds returned last week, and the action continues this weekend when we head to the Brickyard for the Verizon 200.
After a slight mini-slump, Kyle Larson seems to be back on track as he continues his assault on the Cup Series circuit — but is he in a class of his own on the NASCAR odds board for what will be one of the seven road course races this season?

Favorites to win the Verizon 200
When it comes to road courses, nobody has been more consistent than Chase Elliott, who is the favorite this weekend at +200. Elliott has finished in the Top 2 in nine of his last 10 road courses, including six wins, and was runner-up at last weekend's road race at Watkins Glen.
After going into the midsummer break on a slump (by his standards), Kyle Larson got right back to his usual winning ways last weekend, but Elliott's dominance on road courses forces Larson to the number two spot at +350. The Cup Series points co-leader (and favorite to win the Cup Series championship), Larson struggled on road courses early in his career, but has won two of his last three road events and finished Top 2 in three of his last four.
Martin Truex Jr. (+600) holds the third spot on the odds board, with three Top-10 finishes (including two third-place results) in his last four races overall and three straight Top-10 finishes on road courses.
The Top 5 is rounded out by Kyle Busch (+900) and points co-leader Denny Hamlin.
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.
