For first time this year, NASCAR will be under the lights when the 2019 Toyota Owners 400 gets underway at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Richmond Raceway. Kyle Busch enters 2019 NASCAR in Richmond as the pioneer at the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup standings with 361 points. He’s searching for his fourth win of this year along with the 2019 Toyota Owners 400 chances provide him a 9-4 opportunity to receive it starts in fifth place after qualifying. Kevin Harvick had the quickest speed in qualifying at 124.29 MPH, giving him the pole position. His NASCAR in Richmond chances have moved from 7-1 to 9-2. Martin Truex Jr. (6-1), Joey Logano (8-1) and Brad Keselowski (10-1) are among the other leading contenders in this .75-mile short course. Before locking in any 2019 Toyota Owners 400 picks of your own, first make certain to have a look at the NASCAR predictions in the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Produced by DFS pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model simulates every race 10,000 occasions, taking factors such as track record and current results into consideration.
The version is off to a strong start in NASCAR this year, calling Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin that a top-four competition from the beginning. It nailed eight of the top 10 drivers in the Pennzoil 400, which included placing winner Joey Logano at its projected top . It also nailed Busch’s enormous win at Bristol last week. Anyone who has followed its selections is far up.
McClure, with a mechanical engineering degree, grew up around race tracks. Big events at iconic places like Richmond Raceway are in his blood. His model mimicked the 2019 Toyota Owners 400 10,000 times and the results were so surprising.
For NASCAR at Richmond 2019, we can inform you that the model is top on Kyle Larson, who makes a solid run at taking the checkered flag despite heading off at 25-1 NASCAR in Richmond odds.
Larson’s average finish at Richmond is 9.7, that’s the third-best among active drivers. He has finished seventh or better in four of the last five events in Richmond and won the Richmond autumn race in 2017. He will start in 14th place after a slightly slower than anticipated qualifying time of 123.54 MPH. But he posted the quickest lap (121.70 MPH) in the first practice session on Friday, so he’s shown the speed required to scale the NASCAR in Richmond leaderboard on Saturday evening.
Along with a massive shocker: Truex Jr., one of the best Vegas favorites in 6-1, does not even crack the top five. There are far better values in a wealthy 2019 NASCAR at Richmond lineup.
The 39-year-old veteran is sitting in the standings, but he’s tapered off recently. Truex finished 12th at Texas Motor Speedway and then fought last week in Bristol, finishing 17th. In his profession, Truex hasn’t fared well at Richmond Raceway either. In reality, he’s finished in the top five only 3 times in 26 career starts at the track.
The model can also be targeting two other motorists with 2019 Toyota Owners 400 chances of 20-1 or even longer to make a serious run at winning everything. Anybody who backs these long shots can hit it big.
