Kyle Larson took another leap toward his second career NASCAR Cup Series Championship with his fourth win of the season in the Brickyard 400 at the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The majority of oddsmakers moved his odds to season-long lows and into a clear lead as the season hits a two-week break for the Summer Olympics.
There's still 14 races to go in the battle for the Bill France Cup, but here is our latest NASCAR Cup Series odds update.

NASCAR Cup Series favorites
Kyle Larson (+350 to +450)
Kyle Larson has been a consistent presence up front this year with 762 laps led, just a hair off Denny Hamlin for the Cup Series lead. Yet somehow his series-leading nine Top 5s seem underwhelming when he brings race-winning speed to just about every track.
Larson dominated proceedings at Las Vegas — one of the staple 1 1/2-mile ovals on the NASCAR circuit and also a playoff venue — earlier this year.
Denny Hamlin (+375 to +450)
Denny Hamlin fell to as low as +400 following his third victory of 2024 at Dover, though he had a mirror full of Larson at the wire. That victory started a run of five straight Top 5s, but then he went on a streak of five straight finishes outside the Top 10 before grabbing second at Pocono. However, he went back to his bad habits with a 32nd at the Brickyard 400.
Hamlin produced another solid season in 2023 with three wins and 14 Top 5s with 998 laps led, but time is running out for the 43-year-old driver to capture that elusive championship.
Christopher Bell (+375 to +450)
Christopher Bell joined the three-win club at New Hampshire, but had that race been called off with 82 laps to go, he would not have made it to Victory Lane. NASCAR decided to try out rain tires to finish a race for the first time, leading to an finale that looked radically different than it did in the first 219 laps.
Bell also has a rain-shortened Coca-Cola 600 victory under his belt, plus arguably the most dominant win in any race this year at Phoenix — site of the 2024 championship race.
NASCAR Cup Series long shot to watch
Tyler Reddick (+1,000 to +1,400)
Tyler Reddick, who punched his ticket to the postseason back in April at Talladega, has been heating up in the second half in the regular season. He's been no worse than eighth in eight of nine races, and had a win at New Hampshire in the bag prior to the rain tires coming out.
