The odds for who will stand above the field as the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series champion have been updated following the Coca-Cola 600. Ross Chastain went from worst-to-first in an impressive drive to secure his first win of the season at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Now, the Cup Series will head to the Music City. Nashville Superspeedway is on the docket for this coming weekend. It was the spot of Joey Logano’s controversial win in 2024, and without it, he wouldn’t have captured his third championship with a memorable playoff run.

After all of the action in the Coca-Cola 600, FanDuel Sportsbook has released its updated betting lines for which driver will stand above all at the end of the year as champion. Here’s where each wheelman stands entering Nashville this coming weekend, following the fun in Charlotte.

Kyle Larson (+280)

No driver entered this past weekend with higher hopes than Kyle Larson. His second attempt at The Double went about as bad as it could’ve, as he wrecked during the Indianapolis 500, and then finished P37 after a spin in the Coca-Cola 600. Before he spun, he seemed to be destined to compete for the win.

Thankfully, Nashville has been an awesome spot for Larson over the past four years. He’s never finished worse than eighth, and he won at the track back in 2021. There might not be a better spot for the star wheelman to get back on track and reassert his dominance after a tough weekend.

Christopher Bell (+450)

You usually don’t have to look far to find Christopher Bell’s name when it comes to the race results, and that was the case once again in Charlotte. He started P10 and finished P8 on the evening, one year removed from winning a rain-shortened Coca-Coal 600. A solid debut for his new spotter, Matt Philpott.

While Bell doesn’t have a top five at Nashville, he has finished in the top ten three out of his four tries at the track. You can’t count him out at any type of track, and this weekend’s race in Tennessee will be another example of that.

Ryan Blaney (+650)

Gary A. Vasquez

Ryan Blaney has won the Coca-Cola 600 in the past, and another crown jewel win would’ve came at the perfect time. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be for the former Cup Series champion, as the Team Penske No. 12 wheelman finished P38 on the evening.

Nashville has been a mixed bag for Blaney in his career. He’s finished P36 or worse twice, but he’s also finished P3 and P6 at the track, as well. We’ll see which version of the former champion shows up in Tennessee this coming weekend.

Denny Hamlin (+700)

The result won’t tell the whole story for Denny Hamlin in this year’s iteration of the Coca-Cola 600. He battled for the lead with William Byron throughout the night, but a bad pit stop ruined his chance at getting to Victory Lane. He had to settle for P16.

Moving forward, Hamlin has never won at Nashville. Could he get himself a guitar in Victory Lane? His best finish was P3, which came in 2023, a race that was won by Ross Chastain.

William Byron (+750)

William Byron was the class of the field for many of the 600 miles in Charlotte on Sunday. However, he couldn’t close the deal. After starting third and leading a bunch of laps, Byron was passed late by Ross Chastain, and had to settle for being the runner-up.

Byron has been impressive at Nashville at times, notching a top five and two top tens. However, he couldn’t get the job done in 2024, coming home P19. We’ll see if he can rebound with a nice performance in Tennessee this coming weekend.

Chase Elliott (+1200)

Chase Elliott’s immense fanbase would love to see him back in Victory Lane. It hasn’t come yet during the regular season, but the Hendrick Motorsports star notched another solid finish, coming home P6 at Charlotte.

Looking ahead, Nashville will be another opportunity where Elliott can get a win. He went to Victory Lane at the track in 2022, when he was able to stave off Kurt Busch and Ryan Blaney for the dub.

Tyler Reddick (+1200)

The worrisome finishes are starting to pile up for Tyler Reddick. One of NASCAR’s best and brightest, the 23XI Racing wheelman was a popular title pick this offseason. He’s yet to win in 2025, and he finished P26 in the Coca-Cola 600, never truly factoring into the evening.

While Reddick came home P3 at Nashville last season, it was a house of horrors for him before that. He has three finishes of P18 or worse at the superspeedway. Time will tell what’s in-store for him this time around.

Joey Logano (+1200)

It was a painfully average performance from Joey Logano this past weekend in the Coca-Cola 600. He started P16 and finished P17. He certainly expected more heading into the weekend.

What’s working in Logano’s favor? A return to Nashville, of course. This is where he kicked off his chase for championship No. 3 in 2024. With No. 4 on his mind, perhaps history will repeat itself in 2025.
