NASCAR Cup Series Championship 2026 Update (Ep. 842)

Welcome to another episode of the NASCAR Gambling Podcast on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network! Four days a week, Rod Villagomez and Cody Zeeb bring their love of NASCAR and their love of sports betting to you to help you set your bets for the weekend of NASCAR action. From the Craftsman Truck Series to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, to the Cup Series, Rod and Cody have you covered. Today, Rod and Cody go over their NASCAR Cup Series Championship 2026 picks and give you their updated odds. What can we expect from Christopher Bell for the rest of the season? Is it safe to assume Chase Briscoe can be a major player once the Chase starts? Can Ty Gibbs catch his teammate and make this a JGR chase for the championship? How much will it take for Joey Logano to win it all? Will Kyle Larson find a way to unshake himself and win his third Cup Series Championship? Which long shot driver is Cody taking and does he have a legitimate path to come out on top at the end of the Chase? We'll answer these questions and more on this week's episode.
