Before Betting On NASCAR All-Star Race
One of the most exciting races on the NASCAR schedule will take place during the break in the regular season this weekend, as the All-Star Race is staged at North Wilkesboro Speedway. Drivers that have won races across the last two seasons are able to compete, while returning NASCAR Cup Series champions are also eligible to line up.
The race was first competed in 1985, with the field competing a total of 201.168 km on Sunday. This race distance is made up by a total of 200 laps, with both stages being contested over 100 laps. Jimmie Johnson is the most successful driver in the history of the race after landing four victories.
Denny Hamlin has never previously won the All Star Race, but he could be primed to throw down a huge challenge this weekend. The driver has been very consistent throughout the current season, claiming victories on three occasions, and finishing inside the top five in each of the previous two.
Kyle Larson could also be challenging to overlook after winning three editions of the All-Star Race since 2019. Larson will see this weekend as a perfect opportunity to bounce back after struggling to a finish in 34th last weekend. However, he has finished in the top three in four of the last seven races.
