Who has the best odds to win the NASCAR All-Star Race right now?
Denny Hamlin has the best odds to win the NASCAR All-Star Race right now, according to oddsmakers at North Carolina sportsbooks.
Hamlin & his No. 11 Toyota are no strangers to winning, entering May with three wins in seven starts as a part of the historic Joe Gibbs Racing crew.
NASCAR All-Star Race Odds Over Time
But Hamlin isn't the only top contender. William Byron is another short-track ace who entered May tied for the series leads in wins. Those three, along with Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, and Martin Truex Jr., form the main group of drivers to watch.

NASCAR All-Star Race Betting Favorites
Denny Hamlin (+450)
Thereâs no more confident driver in NASCAR when he gets on a roll. And Hamlin has certainly been feeling it this season, with three wins and another top-five finish through the first week of May.
Strengths
21: The number of career victories Hamlin owns on tracks of 1 mile or less in length, making him one of the best short-track racers of his era.
Weaknesses
13.4: His average finish through the first weekend of May, which speaks to the inconsistency thatâs partially defined Hamlinâs career.
Kyle Larson (+700)
Larson ended the first weekend in May with two race wins, and more pole positions and laps led than anyone else on the circuit. With an average finish of 10.8 through the seasonâs 12 races, he's always fast.
Strengths
145 laps led: Larsonâs dominance in last yearâs All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro--the first time the series had competed there in decades--vividly showed his teamâs superior ability to adapt.
Weaknesses
530 miles: The distance between North Wilkesboro and Indianapolis, where Larson will be prepping for the Indy 500. Kevin Harvick is on standby in case Larson misses any practice or qualifying time.
William Byron (+700)
Byron emerged as a championship contender in 2023, and backed that up by winning three of the first eight races in 2024. He's prevailed this season on a short track, a superspeedway and a road course.
Strengths
7: Byronâs top-10 finishes through the first weekend in May, tied for best on the circuit, which included a win on the short track at Martinsville.
Weaknesses
28: Byronâs average finish in his last two starts though the first weekend in May, raising questions about whether he peaked too early.

NASCAR All-Star Race Contenders
Martin Truex Jr. (+900)
Talk of potential retirement has turned to talk of another championship run for Truex, who knocks out top-10 finishes with clinical efficiency. He placed third and fourth in his past two starts through the first weekend in May.
Strengths
8.9: Truexâs average finish, best on the Cup Series through 12 races.
Weaknesses
0: Truexâs number of wins through 12 races. Clearly, heâs struggling to convert those strong runs into victories.
Christopher Bell (+900)
It was an up-and-down first 12 races for Bell, who won at Phoenix but then finished deep in the 30s in three of four starts. Yet his cars are always fast, and North Wilkesboro is the kind of track that suits him.
Strengths
4: The number of career Cup Series wins that Bell owns on tracks of 1 mile or less in length.
Weaknesses
6: The number of laps Bell led in his final five races combined through the first weekend in May, evidence that heâs not up front very often.
Chase Elliott (+1200)
Elliottâs April victory in Texas was his first since late 2022. It ignited a span of five top-5s in six starts through the first week of May.
Strengths
9.7: Elliottâs average finish through the first 12 weeks of the season, which speaks to his consistency.
Weaknesses
131: Elliottâs laps led through 12 races, which tied for seventh, meaning heâs not up front as much as others.

NASCAR All-Star Race Longshots
Michael McDowell (+7000)
No driver gets more out of an underfunded car than McDowell, a former Daytona 500 champion who earned a berth into the All-Star Race by winning the Indianapolis Grand Prix in 2023.
Strengths
5.6: McDowellâs average starting spot over his final three races through the opening weekend of May, proof that his car has some speed
Weaknesses
23.8: McDowellâs average finish through the first 12 races, proof his team can struggle to get to the checkered flag.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (+20000)
Stenhouse punched his ticket into the NASCAR All-Star race by winning last seasonâs Daytona 500. But heâs just as good on short tracks, were he owns 20 career top-5s.
Strengths
4: Stenhouseâs best finish of the season through the first 12 races
Weaknesses
23: Stenhouseâs average finish otherwise, evidence of a difficult season so far for his small race team
Daniel Suarez (+4000)
The only surprise winner of 2024 so far, Suarez clinched his All-Star berth by winning at Atlanta in February. It was his first Cup Series victory on an oval track.
Strengths
7: Suarezâs finishing position in last yearâs All-Star Race.
Weaknesses
1: Number of top-5 finishes Suarez has recorded since his Atlanta victory, through the seasonâs first 12 races
