Before locking in any 2019 Toyota Owners 400 picks of your own, first be sure to check out the NASCAR predictions in the proven computer version at SportsLine.
Produced by DFS expert and SportsLine predictive data scientist Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model simulates every race 10,000 occasions, taking factors such as track record and recent results into account.
The model is off to a strong start in NASCAR this season, calling Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin a top-four contender from the beginning. It nailed eight of the top 10 drivers at the Pennzoil 400, which included placing winner Joey Logano in its projected top five. It also nailed Busch’s enormous win at Bristol last week. Anybody who has followed its picks is way up.
McClure, who has a mechanical engineering degree, grew up around race tracks. Big events at iconic venues like Richmond Raceway are in his blood. His version simulated the 2019 Toyota Owners 400 10,000 times and the results were so surprising.
For NASCAR in Richmond 2019we can tell you the version is high on Kyle Larson, making a strong run at taking the checkered flag despite going off at 25-1 NASCAR at Richmond chances.
Larson’s average finish at Richmond is 9.7, that’s that the third-best among active drivers. He’s finished seventh or better in four of the last five events in Richmond and won the Richmond autumn race at 2017. He’ll begin in 14th place after a slightly slower than expected qualifying time of 123.54 MPH. However he posted the quickest lap (121.70 MPH) in the first practice session on Friday, so he’s revealed the rate required to climb the NASCAR at Richmond leaderboard on Saturday evening.
Along with a massive shocker: Truex Jr., one of the top Vegas favorites at 6-1, doesn’t even crack the top five. There are far better values in a wealthy 2019 NASCAR at Richmond lineup.
The 39-year-old veteran is sitting at seventh in the standings, but he is tapered off recently. Truex finished 12th in Texas Motor Speedway after which fought last week at Bristol, finishing 17th. In his profession, Truex has not fared well at Richmond Raceway either. In fact, he has finished in the top five just 3 times in 26 career starts at the track.
The model is also targeting two additional motorists with 2019 Toyota Owners 400 odds of 20-1 or longer to make a serious run at winning everything. Anyone who backs these long shots can hit it big.
