2 Chase Elliott Bets To Make Now At DraftKings For Daytona 500

The 2023 NASCAR Cup season was a forgettable campaign for Chase Elliott. The Hendrick Motorsports star finished a career-worst 17th in the standings and missed the playoffs for the first time.

At Daytona International Speedway, though, Elliott can get off to a successful start to the new season and put last year behind him with a win in the most prestigious event on the Cup Series calendar.

He will start fifth in the Daytona 500 on Sunday after placing second in the first Daytona Duel.

Elliott and Kyle Larson are tied for the sixth-best odds to win at the “World Center of Racing” on Sunday, which is not much of an endorsement of Elliott when you consider his Hendrick teammate has never finished in the top 5 in 19 career DIS starts.

I definitely prefer Elliott to outperform Larson at the same odds.

In the second Daytona race last year, Elliott finished fourth, and in the past four races at the site, he is third in Green Flag Passes (1,119). The 2020 Cup Series champion had consecutive runner-up finishes in ‘20 and 2021 at Daytona, and he is a two-time winner at Talladega.

Top 3 Finish

The fourth-place finish in his most recent DIS start and the showing in the Daytona Duel gives me the confidence to also strongly consider Elliott as a top 3 finisher. If he can avoid a wreck, expect a run to contention.

Before Elliott’s last start at DIS, he was not able to finish in his previous two starts at the site. Prior to the last three Daytona races, though, he had a string of four consecutive top 10 showings.
