    Through the Gears: NASCAR Betting Odds for Homestead Finale

    The final NASCAR Cup Series weekend of 2026 is here, and the series is making its return to South Florida. For the first time since 2019, Homestead-Miami Speedway will host the season finale. Kyle Larson comes into the weekend with a large lead in the Chase standings and only needs nine points to clinch his second-straight championship. NASCAR 2026 State of the Sport Address, SummarizedSteve O'Donnell made his first State of the Sport address as NASCAR CEO and addressed topics such as the Next Gen car, international races, ratings and more. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Larson also comes in as the favorite to win this weekend at +400. After Larson, it's Denny Hamlin and Ryan Blaney at +550 as the highest Toyota and Ford drivers. Hamlin is still one of two drivers still mathematically alive to try to catch and pass Larson in points this weekend, while Blaney is officially out of contention. Christopher Bell is the other driver alive in points, and he is next at +600, followed by fellow Toyota drivers Tyler Reddick (+650) and Chase Briscoe (+700). Last weekend's winner at Martinsville Speedway, William Byron, follows at +800 before a large jump up in odds to +1,600 and above. Through the Gears host Michael Bellifemini gets you set for the final race of the season, as he goes over his fantasy lineup picks on Speedway Collective and looks at potential parlays to place during this week’s episode.

    Through the Gears: NASCAR Betting Odds for Martinsville Chase Race

    There are only two races remaining in the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season, and this week, the field will head to Martinsville Speedway for the penultimate event. The other six Chase drivers still alive for the championship will be desperate for points in order to try to chase down points leader and defending champion Kyle Larson. Let's see how the odds shake out for this weekend's race, courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook. NASCAR 101: Which JGR Driver Has the Best Chance of Upsetting Kyle Larson at Martinsville?And can any of them even do so at all? Denny Hamlin is the favorite this week at +400 as he comes to his hometown track, needing a huge points day to stay in the fight as he is currently down 73 points to Larson. Next at +450 is Ryan Blaney, who has won this fall Martinsville race multiple times in the Next Gen era and is looking to bounce back after being involved in a crash last weekend at Talladega Superspeedway. Blaney's teammate, Joey Logano, is also looking for a rebound after flipping over in a late crash at Talladega. He comes in at +700 to win his first Next Gen race at Martinsville. Next is points leader Larson at +750. He has a win to his name at the track, and with another strong points day, it's very possible he could clinch his third NASCAR Cup title a week in advance of the finale. Two more Hendrick Motorsports drivers follow Larson. Chase Elliott (+800) comes in as the most recent winner at Martinsville, while William Byron (+900) is still searching for his first win of 2026 — his most recent win came in this very race last year. The other three Joe Gibbs Racing drivers follow consecutively with Christopher Bell and Chase Briscoe coming in tied at +1,000 odds to win, followed right behind by Ty Gibbs at +1,200. Through the Gears host Michael Bellifemini previews the action for you for Sunday afternoon’s Chase race, as he goes over his fantasy lineup picks on Speedway Collective and breaks down the odds by going over potential parlay or straight bets during this week’s episode. The event will take place this Sunday, Nov. 1, at 2 p.m. ET with live TV coverage provided by NBC. Watch the whole show above or on YouTube. You can also listen to the audio version on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
