Yesterday at 05:53 PM
The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season officially kicks off Sunday with the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway, and early in the week leading up to the biggest race of the NASCAR season, Ryan Blaney, Joey Logano and Brad Keselowski have the best odds to take the checkered flag.
Blaney and Logano, both Team Penske drivers, and Keselowski, an RFK Racing driver, are at +1200 to win the Daytona 500, according to BetMGM as of Tuesday afternoon.

All three drivers have wins at Daytona’s 2.5-mile track, but only Logano — who’s also the reigning Cup Series champion – has a Daytona 500 victory on his resume after taking the 2015 checkered flag. However, all three are very skilled on NASCAR’s longer tracks, known as superspeedways.
Defending Daytona 500 winner William Byron has the seventh-best odds to win at +1800, along with his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Chase Elliott and RFK Racing’s Chris Buescher.
