For the first time, Dover Motor Speedway will host NASCAR’s All-Star Race on Sunday, May 17, and once again, $1 million will be at stake.
Denny Hamlin won the Dover points races the last two seasons, so it is no surprise that he opens as the betting favorite at +450, according to BetMGM.
Despite his winless streak, reigning champion Kyle Larson has the second-best odds at +600. Hendrick Motorsports teammate Chase Elliott follows at +700, while Ryan Blaney has the best odds of any Ford driver at +800.
Points leader Tyler Reddick is +1,000 as he has never won a Cup race at Dover, Christopher Bell is slightly above him at +900.
Host Michael Bellifemini breaks down the field for Sunday’s All-Star Race, going over the favorites and how the new format will impact the race.
