AdventHealth 400 Picks, Predictions, Odds

2 minute read

The 12th race of the NASCAR season takes place in Kansas City, Kansas on Sunday for the AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway.

Martin Truex, Jr. snapped a 54-race winless streak with his victory at Dover last Monday, marking the fourth different winner in the last four races.

Kurt Busch finished atop the pack in last year's AdventHealth 400, just ahead of Kyle Larson and Kurt's younger brother Kyle Busch.

Kurt Busch won't repeat this season since he is taking the year off, but three drivers have won at Kansas Speedway three times in their career, including Kevin Harvick, Joey Logano, and Denny Hamlin.

Larson is this week's favorite at 5/1 odds, as he looks to rebound from a 32nd-place finish at Dover, marking the third time in four weeks he has placed 30th or worse.

ADVENTHEALTH 400 TOP-5 FINISH PREDICTION

1) #11 Denny Hamlin (8/1)
2) #20 Christopher Bell (+850)
3) #9 Chase Elliott (12/1)
4) #1 Ross Chastain (12/1)
5) #23 Bubba Wallace (14/1)

ADVENTHEALTH 400 PICKS & PREDICTIONS

We've taken several shots with Hamlin this season, who has yet to win a race and is seeking his first victory since last May at Charlotte.

Hamlin (8/1) looks for back-to-back top-10 finishes for the first time this season after placing 5th at Dover on Monday.

Hamlin has put up good numbers historically at Kansas, which includes five top-5 finishes in the past seven at this track, including a 4th and 2nd place finish in the two races in KCK last year.

Christopher Bell (+850) compiled a pair of top-5 finishes in 2022 at Kansas Speedway, including a 5th place finish in the May event. Bell has been extremely impressive this season with 8 top-10 finishes in 11 races, while crashing out in two races.

Chase Elliott (12/1) has gotten three races under his belt since missing six races due to a leg injury. Elliott hasn't broken through the top-10 in the last three events, but has placed 10th, 12th, and 11th.

At Kansas, Elliott last won in 2018, while posting six top-6 finishes in the past nine races at this track.
