Be afraid, be very afraid. It’s time for the Monster Mile of Dover Motor Speedway. We’re headed to quite possibly the toughest track on schedule where tire conservation will play a major factor. Coming off the most uncertain race of the season, the list of true contenders here is much more narrow. Let’s take a look at who the favorites are and all the Wurth 400 odds presented by DraftKings Sportsbook.
2023 Nascar: Dover Motor Speedway Odds
Races here at Dover have traditionally been won by drivers with early track position. During the 104 races since it’s first ever race in 1969, only five winners started their race worse than 19th. Every winner since the Fall of 2013 has started 17th or better. And 20 of the last 28 begun their race inside the top 10.
The last two races has seen Hendrick shine the brightest. In 2021, Alex Bowman took home the win with the other three HMS cars finishing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Then last season, Chase Elliott took the checkered flag with Bowman and Larson finishing 5th and 6th.
That isn’t all that surprising considering HMS has won 9 of the last 17 here. With them, JGR, or Kevin Harvick having won each of the last 17. This is clearly reflected on the oddsboard with All four HMS drivers, three JGR guys, and Kevin Harvick making up eight of the nine shortest numbers. See all the opening odds below.
