While the NASCAR Cup Series field whips up a plethora of throwbacks for Sunday’s (March 22) race at Darlington Raceway, Frontstretch‘s Through the Gears gets you set to try to go two in a row on your betting card this week after a dominating performance by Denny Hamlin last weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Hamlin enters this week as the defending spring Darlington winner at +550 and has a ton of momentum to carry with him and the Toyota camp, winning four of five on the season.
Is 2026 Finally (Yes, Finally) the Year for Denny Hamlin?
That one other win was snatched at Phoenix Raceway by Ford’s Ryan Blaney, who previously dominated last season in this race before being shuffled out of the lead thanks to the final late yellow flag sequence. He’ll look to avenge last year’s race at the egg-shaped oval with +1,000 odds.
Plus, what happened to Chevy, and are they on a ‘do not bet on’ list with their struggles out of the gate?
Host Wyatt Watson is joined for the first time by writer of Frontstretch‘s DraftKings NASCAR Daily Fantasy column Garrett Cook for analysis of the best bets across the major sportsbooks.
