The 2019 Food City 500 occurs on Sunday at mythical Bristol Motor Speedway. The green flag falls at 2 p.m. ET, and every corner counts due to the tight, steeply-banked track where death is at a premium. Last week, Denny Hamlin grabbed his next victory of this 2019 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series season at Texas Motor Speedway. He’s got a win at Bristol under his belt and can be listed at 14-1 to win in the most current 2019 Food City 500 chances. However, there are six drivers with 2019 NASCAR at Bristol chances better than Hamlin, as Kyle Busch (5-2) is your favorite followed by Kyle Larson (7-1), Brad Keselowski (8-1), Joey Logano (8-1), Ryan Blaney (12-1) and Kevin Harvick (12-1). So before you create your own 2019 Food City 500 picks, see the NASCAR in Bristol predictions in the proven pc model at SportsLine.

The version is off to a strong start in NASCAR this season, calling Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin a top-four competition from the start. It nailed eight of the top 10 drivers in the Pennzoil 400, which included placing winner Joey Logano at its projected top . It was also all over Kyle Busch as a leading contender at the TicketGuardian 500 and four of the motorists at McClure’s top five went on to top-five finishes in the Automobile Club 400. Anybody who has followed its picks is far up.
McClure, who has a mechanical engineering degree, grew up around race tracks. Big events at iconic places like Bristol Motor Speedway are in his blood. His model mimicked the 2019 Food City 500 10,000 times and the results were so surprising.
For Sundaywe could tell you that the version is high on Kurt Busch, who makes a strong run in the checkered flag despite heading off as a very long shot 14-1 NASCAR in Bristol chances.
Busch is a six-time winner at Bristol Motor Speedway and only his brother, Kyle Busch (seven), has more wins in this track among active NASCAR drivers. That includes a victory last August in the NASCAR at Bristol race because of his 30th career success in NASCAR’s top series.

He conquer Larson by 0.367 seconds last time NASCAR seen Bristol and will again start 27th on Sunday. He is off to a hot start this year also, finishing in the top 10 in all but two races.
