Few sports are more popular for betting in the United States than NASCAR. That is especially the case in the southern states, with motor races on the NASCAR Cup Series occurring almost every Sunday.
The end of the season will see NASCAR playoff action taking place before the end-of-season race sees the champion declared.

NASCAR Betting Markets
Future Betting
The most popular market for NASCAR betting can be found in the futures section. Here, you can wager on the driver that will end the season as the NASCAR champion. The bet will be settled at the end of the season, with returns awarded if your selection is crowned champion. The prices in this market will change throughout the season, meaning getting the best price is imperative.
Outright Race Winner
Like most motorsports, the most popular way to wager on NASCAR throughout the season is by wagering on the driver that will win the race being staged. NASCAR races occur every Sunday, and betting markets typically open the Tuesday before the race. Bettors will be looking to find the driver that will come out on top against the 40 involved, and the returns will be awarded at the conclusion.
Head To Head Betting
Instead of betting on the race winner, NASCAR wagers can also be placed on the head-to-head market. Here, two drivers will be included in the market, and you must select the driver that finishes closest to the top of the podium. While it may not be the most lucrative market available, it does at least add greater interest throughout the race if your selection isn’t competing for the win.
Podium Finish
Bettors can also wager on the drivers that will finish on the podium. Drivers that will be favored to win the race will be shorter prices in this market than the outsiders, meaning that it is typically a market for those looking to wager on a driver achieving a top three finish at a higher price. Returns are awarded if your selection finishes in the top three at the end of the race.
