2023 Toyota Owners 400 Odds and Preview

Time for some short-track racing with speedway flare! The NASCAR Cup Series moves to Richmond Raceway for the running of the 2023 Toyota Owners 400. This is the first short-track race of the season, and it is at a track where Martin Truex Jr., Denny Hamlin, and Joe Gibbs Racing have done well. They’ve won two of the last three Richmond races! But three other drivers are topping the odds list this week.

William Byron, Kevin Harvick, and Kyle Larson all enter the race weekend knotted together at +600. Harvick is the only one of the three that has won a recent Cup Series race at this track as he’s the defending race winner. Larson also won here but it was in 2017 and two generations ago when it comes to the design of Cup Series cars.

Richmond is only .75 miles long but has a design with banked turns and a “D” shaped front stretch that allows for higher speeds. There have been 6 different winners over 6 races to date. Martin Truex Jr was the last driver to win back-to-back at Richmond as he won both races at the track in the 2019 season. Truex has won three of the last seven races at Richmond and Denny Hamlin won this race last season!

Here are the favorites to win the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway:

William Byron +600

Kevin Harvick +600

Kyle Larson +600

William Byron could finally get his first win at Richmond Speedway this week as he’s been close several times in his Cup career. He’s finished 7th, 19th, 3rd and 11th in his last four starts at the track. He led 122 laps of the spring Richmond race last season. Byron has also already won twice this season. That levels the deck for oddsmakers when comparing him with Kevin Harvick who is the defending track winner.

Harvick won at Richmond during the fall race last season and Denny Hamlin won this race last Spring. The difference this season is that Harvick is having a much better season than Hamlin so far. Harvick is sitting 6th in points while Hamlin is 14th to date. Still, Richmond is a track they’ve done well on over the years which explains the tight numbers. Harvick is +600 while Hamlin is +800.
