NASCAR at Richmond odds, key stats, bets to consider: Handicap Toyota Owners 400 with similar race tracks

Following an exciting race in Tennessee, NASCAR heads to Richmond Raceway Saturday night (6 p.m. CT, FOX) for the third short-track race the Cup Series season.

Richmond, the website of the Toyota Owners 400, is 0.25 miles more than Bristol and Martinsville, but NASCAR still categorizes it as a short track. It is really most similar to New Hampshire and Phoenix’s 1-mile flat track in banking and it.

Kyle Busch, who won Sunday’s race at Bristol since the race-favorite, once again gets the shortest chances (2/1) on the plank in the Westgate SuperBook because he seeks his seventh win in Richmond. Busch has finished in the top 10 in each race this season and owns a series-best 6.9 average finish in the Richmond. Busch won and directed a race-high 177 laps and has finished first and second at New Hampshire.

Recent results, richmond rules bundle

Teams will use the 2019 rules bundle tailored for quick tracks (less than 1.33 miles) and street classes. A 1.17-inch tapered spacer is going to be used as it was earlier this year at Phoenix, Martinsville, and Bristol, with motors expected to create about 750 horsepower. When handicapping Saturday’s 400-lap race, results from Phoenix should be bettors’ priority before researching the outcomes of last year from Richmond and New Hampshire, because packages were used.

Pole-sitter Ryan Blaney (94) and Aric Almirola (26) also led laps at Phoenix in March, as did Denny Hamlin (7), Jimmie Johnson (4), and Daniel Hemric (4). Busch won Stage 1 and Blaney won Phase 2, and the duo was joined by Martin Truex Jr. (second), Almirola (third), and Hamlin (fifth) at the top five at the checkered flag.

Recent consequences: New Hampshire | Richmond | Phoenix

Entering Saturday’s race, Team Penske drivers Blaney, Brad Keselowski, and Joey Logano has dominated brief tracks of Martinsville and Bristol. The trio has led 795 of the laps this year, as a result of Keselowski’s 486 circuits directed.
