After an exciting race at Tennessee, NASCAR heads to Richmond Raceway Saturday night (6 p.m. CT, FOX) to its next short-track race that the Cup Series season.
Richmond, the site of the Toyota Owners 400, is 0.25 miles longer than Bristol and Martinsville, but NASCAR still categorizes it as a short track. It is actually similar to the 1-mile apartment monitor of Phoenix and New Hampshire in banking and it is no surprise drivers who’ve had success.
Kyle Busch, who won Sunday’s race at Bristol since the race-favorite, once again has the shortest odds (2/1) on the board in the Westgate SuperBook because he seeks his seventh win at Richmond. Busch has finished in the top 10 in every race this year and owns a series-best 6.9 average end in the Richmond. Busch won and directed a 177 laps and has finished first and second at the two races at New Hampshire.

Richmond rules bundle Teams will use the 2019 rules package tailored for short tracks (less than 1.33 miles) and road courses. A 1.17-inch tapered spacer will be utilized as it was earlier this season at Phoenix, Martinsville, and Bristol, with engines expected to generate about 750 horsepower. When handicapping Saturday’s 400-lap race, results in Phoenix should be bettors’ priority before researching last year’s results from Richmond and New Hampshire, since different packages were used.
Pole-sitter Ryan Blaney (94) and Aric Almirola (26) also led laps in Phoenix in March, as did Denny Hamlin (7), Jimmie Johnson (4), and Daniel Hemric (4 ) ). Busch won Stage 1 and Blaney won Stage 2, and the duo was joined by Martin Truex Jr. (moment ), Almirola (third), and Hamlin (fifth) in the top five in the checkered flag.
