The NASCAR Cup Series circuit heads to the Kansas Speedway for the AdventHealth 400 this Sunday.
The race is scheduled for 267 laps and 400 miles around the 1.5-mile track. Ahead of this Sunday’s race, there are a few drivers the odds makers have their eyes on. In addition, there are a few longshots worth watching.
Here, we will take a look at the betting odds for the AdventHealth 400 at Kansas.
Denny Hamlin, Kyle Larson open as favorites to win Kansas
In the odds released by DraftKings Sportsbooks, two of the usual suspects are the favorites heading into Kansas.
Denny Hamlin is the opening favorite to win the AdventHealth 400 at +450. Last fall, the driver of the No. 11 placed runner-up after leading a race-high 159 laps. With four victories, the Joe Gibbs Racing star has the most Kansas wins all-time.
Kyle Larson is close behind at +500 to win. The driver of the No. 5 has won the last two Kansas spring races. The two-time and defending Cup Series champion has finished no worse than eighth in eight of the last nine Kansas races.
Larson rides a 32-race winless drought heading into Kansas. After a strong third-place run at Bristol, this Sunday could be the day “Yung Money” breaks through.
Christopher Bell is next on the odds list at +650 to win. While yet to win at the track, Bell has finished eighth or better in the last five Kansas races. That includes a second-place result last spring and a third-place effort last fall.
Tyler Reddick enters Kansas at +750 to win. The driver of the No. 45 has a victory at the track in 2023, but has finished 17th or worse in three of the last four Kansas races. The 23XI Racing driver has four wins in 2026.
Ryan Blaney comes in at +900 to win. The driver of the No. 12 has never won at Kansas, but has two top-five finishes in the last three races at the track.
Chase Elliott and other longshots to watch
Last fall, Chase Elliott took the checkered flag at Kansas in thrilling fashion.
This Sunday, the driver of the No. 9 enters at +1400 to win. Elliott has two victories at Kansas and has finished top 10 in five of the last six races at the track. Given that he won at Kansas last fall, Elliott could upset the favorites on Sunday.
Bubba Wallace is another longshot to watch at +1700. The driver of the No. 23 won at Kansas in the fall of 2022 and was leading at the white flag of last year’s fall race before finishing fifth.
However, the 23XI Racing driver has finished 17th or worse in four of the last five Kansas races.
Chris Buescher enters Kansas at +2200 to win. In the spring 2024 Kansas race, Buescher finished runner-up to Larson in the closest finish in NASCAR history.
In addition, the driver of the No. 17 has finished 15th or better in the last four Kansas races.
Ross Chastain comes in at +4500 to win. The driver of the No. 1 won at Kansas in the fall of 2024, but has failed to finish top 10 in the last two Kansas races.
The AdventHealth 400 is scheduled to begin on Sunday, April 19 at 2 p.m. Eastern time on FOX and the Motor Racing Network.
