NASCAR Cup Series odds for the Coca-Cola 600.<\/p>\n
The NASCAR<\/a> Cup Series circuit heads to the Charlotte Motor Speedway this Sunday for the running of the Coca-Cola 600. Scheduled for 400 laps and 600 miles, it is the longest race on the Cup Series schedule.<\/p>\n Heading into the race weekend, the oddsmakers have pinpointed a few top contenders expected to be the favorites to win. Meanwhile, there are a number of longshots that are worth watching.<\/p>\n Here, we will take a look at the betting odds for the Coca-Cola 600.<\/p>\n Denny Hamlin favored to win second Coca-Cola 600<\/p>\n In the odds released by DraftKings Sportsbooks<\/a>, as of Wednesday evening Eastern time, Denny Hamlin is the odds-on favorite to win Sunday\u2019s Coca-Cola 600. At +500 odds, the driver of the No. 11 is seeking his second career Coca-Cola 600 triumph.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Joe Gibbs Racing star captured the win in the 2022 Coca-Cola 600, winning the race from the pole. In the last six Coca-Cola 600s, Hamlin has posted three top fives and four top 10s.\u00a0<\/p>\n After winning last Sunday\u2019s All-Star Race at Dover, the 45-year-old has momentum on his side.<\/p>\n Tyler Reddick has the second-best odds at +650. The driver of the No. 45 has five victories in 2026, including at the 1.5-mile track of Las Vegas. Aside from a 26th-place effort last year, the 23XI Racing driver has finished ninth or better in four of the last five Coca-Cola 600s.\u00a0<\/p>\n Kyle Larson comes in with the next-best odds at +750 to win. Riding a winless drought of over a year, Larson looks to add a second Coca-Cola 600 win to his resume. The driver of the No. 5 dominated the 2021 race, leading 327 of 400 laps en route to victory.<\/p>\n However, Larson\u2019s last two starts in the Coca-Cola 600 have ended in a result of 30th or worse. He missed the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 after being occupied with running the weather-delayed Indianapolis 500 in his attempt to run \u201cThe Double.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n Ross Chastain and other longshots to watch<\/p>\n One year ago, Ross Chastain drove all the way from the 40th starting position to capture the win in the Coca-Cola 600.<\/p>\n Heading into this Sunday, the defending winner sits at +2800 odds to win. Given his miraculous drive to the front in last year\u2019s race, the driver of the No. 1 is certainly an underdog to watch for this weekend.<\/p>\n Kyle Busch is another longshot worth keeping an eye on at +4000 to win. Despite the 2026 struggles, the driver of the No. 8 has found speed in recent weeks as \u201cRowdy\u201d is coming off an eighth-place run at Watkins Glen.<\/p>\n Busch won the Coca-Cola 600 back in 2018, but has finished 15th in the last two events.\u00a0<\/p>\n Busch\u2019s Richard Childress Racing teammate, Austin Dillon, is another worth watching. At +13,000 odds, the driver of the No. 3 has put together a string of strong runs. Dillon ran fourth in Sunday\u2019s All-Star Race and posted a sixth at Watkins Glen.<\/p>\n Dillon won his first career Cup Series race in the 2017 Coca-Cola 600. However, he has finished 20th or worse in the last two Coca-Cola 600s.<\/p>\n Pending weather<\/a>, the Coca-Cola 600 is set to get underway on Sunday night at 6 p.m. Eastern time. The race can be watched on Prime or listened to on the Performance Racing Network.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tJohn Breeden<\/a> John Breeden is a NASCAR contributor at Heavy Sports.
