Martinsville STP 500 NASCAR Betting Picks and Race Odds

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series is at Martinsville Speedway this weekend, also with Kyle Busch winning at Phoenix and Fontana within the last two weeks, he has been installed as a heavy favorite for the STP 500 at”The Paperclip”–and for good reason: Rowdy hasn’t finished outside of the top 5 at this track since the 2014 season, and he has led a joint 582 laps within the last four (and 937 within the last six). Of course, whenever you have the preferred in +150 to triumph, so there’s some great significance in gambling others in case that man has problems during the race.

Last weekend in Car Club Speedway my favourite bets went 2-0, bringing my annual record to 5-3. I had Brad Keselowski to finish top 3, and his afternoon went south , so that was screwed from the beginning.

Martin Truex, Jr.. Top 3 End (+200) — The races at Martinsville are generally predictable: we see the exact same faces up front again and again, and we don’t see Martin Truex, Jr. in victory lane. Where we do find him, though, is close enough to acquire if something goes wrong with the chief. Over the last three races at”The Paperclip,” Truex has posted finishes of 3rd, 4th, and 2nd, and even though he starts back in 8th for the STP 500, he’s got one hell of a race car underneath him for into the front. The #19 Toyota rated #1 at 10-, 15-, 20-, and 30-lap average during the last practice session on Saturday, and there is going to be lots of runs during the race. Truex is really going to shine during these. If you study this week’s rankings by the Fantasy Racing On line algorithm, Truex is a very close 4th supporting Logano, and if you look at current trends by pole sitters in the spring Martinsville race, I would give that edge to Truex.

Chris Buescher (+105) over Daniel Hemric — I am honestly surprised Chris Buescher is not getting more love this weekend. This #37 team hasn’t finished worse than 18th since the Daytona 500, plus they’ve got a good starting place for today’s STP 500 (12th). Meanwhile, Hemric will begin from back in 28th, also has a propensity to hit the wall more frequently than not. We’ve got 500 laps to race in today’s STP 500, and to tell the truth, I am not sure he ends. On the other hand, Buescher has finished 13th, 23rd, 21st, and 11th in his past four Martinsville starts, and he’s running better than he’s probably ever ran. This is really a no brainer for me.
