Pennzoil 400 Predictions

Among Prolific Winners at Las Vegas, Joey Logano Is Undervalued

Joey Logano has won three of the last 10 NASCAR Cup Series races at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, including the most recent.

In fact, his victory in last year’s Playoff race helped to propel him to his third Cup Series championship, most among full-time active drivers.

That said, we think Logano is seriously undervalued at bet365 Sportsbook, which has the driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford priced at +1200.

Though we think Logano is more likely to win at Vegas later in the season, we have him earmarked as a good bet at current levels. He’s just not our first choice this week.

Kyle Larson Leads Strong Hendrick Group on Season’s First 1.5-Miler

Kyle Larson’s recent stats at Las Vegas Motor Speedway are even better than Joey Logano’s.

Consistently fast at the 1.5-mile intermediate speedway, Larson has won three of the last eight races at the track, including two of the last three.

Two of Larson’s Hendrick Motorsports teammates, Alex Bowman and William Byron, also have victories in the last eight races at Vegas, establishing HMS as the dominant organization at the track.

Though we aren’t picking Larson to win as co-favorite this week (+350 via bet365), we do think Bowman, the most undervalued of the Hendrick drivers, to finish in the top five at +325 (bet365).

Bowman is one of five drivers to have scored top-10 results in three of the first four races this season, and he’s currently sixth in the standings heading to one of his best tracks.

Christopher Bell Can Join Elite Company with Fourth Straight Victory

Last week, we picked Christopher Bell to win at Phoenix Raceway, and the 30-year-old from Norman, Oklahoma, came through with his third straight victory.

Though Bell doesn’t have a win at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the 1.5-mile track is one where he’s shown consistent speed.

In fact, Bell led a race-high 155 laps in the Playoff race last fall before finishing second to Joey Logano by 0.662 seconds.

With his third victory last Sunday, Bell became the first driver to win three straight Cup races since NASCAR introduced the Next Gen car into its top division in 2022.

Should he win again at Las Vegas, as we are predicting him to do at +350 (bet365), he will become only the second driver to win four of the first five races of a Cup Series season.

The only driver to accomplish that feat to date was NASCAR Hall of Famer Bill Elliott in 1992.
