The Charlotte Motor Speedway began hosting NASCAR Cup races in 1960. It hosts the ARCA Menards Series and NASCAR’s all-three national series: the Cup, Xfinity and the Truck.

A total of 39 drivers will contest over 400 laps in this week’s Cup Series race. This will be the 127th annual event hosted by the Charlotte Motor Speedway in the NASCAR Cup Series.

Heading to Charlotte Motor Speedway, 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson is the favorite, per the odds table, at +450, to win the Coca-Cola 600 this week, according to motorsportswire.com. Larson won the Coca-Cola 600 in 2021.

Joe Gibbs Racing driver Denny Hamlin has the second-highest odds at +600 to win the 600-mile race. Hamlin won this event in 2022.

They are followed by Tyler Reddick at +800, the defending Coca-Cola 600 winner Ryan Blaney at +900, and William Byron at +1000 in the top-five odds.

Martin Truex Jr., who won Coca-Cola 600 multiple times among active Cup drivers, is coming to this weekend with the sixth-highest odds at +1100. Truex came close to winning several times this season and will look to claim the victory at Charlotte.
