The 2021 NASCAR Cup Series is underway, and the first big race of the year will take place this weekend. The Daytona 500 is set to run at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday. The race starts at 2:30 p.m. ET and airing on FOX. If you are looking to watch via live stream, checking out FOX Live. If you don’t have a cable log-in for FOX Live, you can get a free trial from YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, AT&T TV Now, FuboTV, or Sling TV to stream it.
Denny Hamlin is favored at +750 on DraftKings Sportsbook and has won the last two runs of The Great American Race. He’ll start from behind, sitting in 25th on the grid to start. Hamlin has won three Daytona 500s in the last five years and can use his experience to his advantage, though. Last year’s Cup Series champ, Chase Elliott, has the second-best odds (+1000) but has never won the Daytona 500. Joey Logano won the race in 2015 and has odds even with Elliott’s. Alex Bowman (+2000) is the pole sitter at the Daytona 500 for the second time in four years.
Here’s the full layout for how you can watch the game and the rest of the starting grid.
