The odds for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series’ return to COTA this weekend have been updated ahead of the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix.

Coming off a win at Bristol Motor Speedway, Denny Hamlin isn’t among the favorites in Austin, but he’ll be happy with the odds, as 23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick is at the top of the list. Additionally, some fascinating drivers are in the field as well, as Shane van Gisbergen and Kamui Kobayashi are in the race.

Ahead of this weekend’s race at COTA, where it’s bound to be a ton of fun, there’s a myriad of fascinating storylines. As the campaign moves forward this weekend, here are the updated NASCAR odds for the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix, courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook.

Tyler Reddick (+400)

The favorite for this weekend’s race at COTA is none other than 23XI Racing’s own Tyler Reddick. He’s the reigning winner after last season’s race, and has never finished below P9 in Austin, since it’s inception into the NASCAR Cup Series schedule in 2021.

Reddick has come close to a win in 2024, but he hasn’t been able to close the deal yet. Regardless, he’s shown some serious speed, and the No. 45 wheelman could be the class of the field at the season’s first road course.

Chase Elliott (+800)

It’s been a while since we’ve seen Chase Elliott in Victory Lane. Bristol was solid for the Hendrick Motorsports star, as he finished P8, but his fans want wins, not simply top tens for the sport’s most popular driver.
Thankfully, COTA is a track that’s been kind to Elliott in the past. He missed the race last season with an injury, and Jordan Taylor filled in, coming home P24. In his return to COTA, Elliott could put a stamp on his comeback with a win in Austin.

Shane van Gisbergen (+900)

The much anticipated return of Shane van Gisbergen to the Cup Series will take place at COTA. After capturing victory in the Chicago Street Race and putting on an impressive performance at Indianapolis, the New Zealander is looking to prove his mettle once again this weekend.

If SVG can win once again, he’ll prove why his venture into America’s Motorsports world is more than wishful thinking. He’s been impressive thus far in the Xfinity Series, and a second win in two seasons in the Cup Series would be an exhilarating turn of events for the star.

Christopher Bell (+1000)

Christopher Bell was hoping to win back-to-back races, following his win at Phoenix during the fourth weekend of the season. However, he’ll take a top ten, as Bell finished P10 at The Last Great Coliseum.

COTA was rough for Bell in 2023, as the Joe Gibbs Racing star finished P31. However, he’s looking to enter the upper echelon of drivers this season, so the No. 20 wheelman will be looking to perform well in Austin this weekend.

William Byron (+1000)

William Byron made the loudest statement of 2024 earlier this season when he won the Daytona 500. However, Bristol wasn’t a fun afternoon for the Hendrick Motorsports star, as Byron came home with a P35 finish on the afternoon.

While some roll their eyes at heading to COTA, Byron’s enthusiasm should be high. The No. 24 wheelman finished P5 last season during the event, and he’ll be looking to bounce back from a tough performance in Tennessee.

Kyle Larson (+1200)

Kyle Larson had a whirlwind day at Bristol during the Food City 500. The Hendrick Motorsports star ended up with a top five, finishing P5 after some hectic occurrences knocked him off kilter, but he was able to salvage the afternoon in grand fashion.

Over the last couple of seasons, a trip to COTA hasn’t meant tremendous success for the former NASCAR Cup Series champion. He came home P15 in 2023, and he’ll be looking to improve during the first road course of 2024 this time around.

Ross Chastain (+1200)

Tyler Reddick’s numbers at COTA are impressive, but Ross Chastain’s results are just as good, if not better. He’s won at the track before, and has never finished lower than P4 in Austin.

The wheelman of the No. 1 for Trackhouse, Chastain has been impressive throughout 2024, and really since he ever joined the team. Another win at COTA would officially lock him into the playoffs, and it’s easy to see why FanDuel is confident in his ability at the track.

Martin Truex Jr. (+1200)

Martin Truex Jr. proved once again at Bristol why he’s one of the best the sport has to offer. He was the only one who had anything for Denny Hamlin at the end of the race, but the Joe Gibbs Racing wheelman couldn’t pass his teammate.

Regardless, Truex Jr. has had a silently strong start to 2024. He’ll look to keep the pressure on the rest of the field at COTA, where he finished P17 in 2023. However, his road course racing prowess will make him a prohibitive favorite entering the weekend.
