2011 Coke Zero 400 Betting Odds Breakdown – Who to Bet On and How to Win Money on the Coke Zero 400: Daytona International Speedway has provided some of the biggest upsets in NASCAR history, making it one of the perfect tracks for bettors to cash in. The difference between a favorite and a longshot at Daytona is nearly nonexistent because one mistake by any driver can wipe out dozens more. The drivers that survive the mayhem are left fight it out for the win, and the drivers vying for the victory almost always include some unexpected names.
He is one of the up and coming plate track racers in NASCAR, but Juan Pablo Montoya is only getting 25/1 odds to win this weekend’s race. He has finished in the top 10 in three of his last four starts at Daytona, including a career-best sixth-place run earlier this year. Montoya has been knocking on the door of a superspeedway win the last two seasons, and he could kick it down this weekend to the tune of a big payoff.
Apparently, oddsmakers forgot that Regan Smith recorded the top driver rating during the season opener at Daytona because he is only getting 40/1 odds to win this weekend. Smith was at or near the front of the pack most of the afternoon, eventually finishing seventh despite being involved in a late wreck. He should have one of the faster cars again Saturday night, and he could be a steal for bettors at his current odds.
No organization has dominated the plate tracks in recent years like Richard Childress Racing, and when Paul Menard joined RCR, he inherited the same equipment. It showed in the season opener as he finished a career-best ninth at Daytona, but he still has just 40/1 odds to win Saturday night. He will get his second try at the 2.5-mile track this weekend, and Menard will certainly have a car capable of contending for the win.
Even though Jimmie Johnson is a former winner at Daytona, his 12/1 odds this weekend are a bit generous. In his last seven starts at the track, he has finished 23rd or worse six times, including three straight finishes outside the top 25. Daytona has a way of humbling even the best drivers in the series, and Johnson simply isn’t as dominant at the 2.5-mile superspeedway as he his elsewhere.
For all the winning he has done the three seasons, Denny Hamlin has yet to breakthrough at a restrictor-plate track. He has really struggled at Daytona, finishing in the top 15 only once in 11 starts. Despite the poor numbers, he is getting 15/1 odds to win this weekend. History doesn’t bode well for Hamlin, yet he is ranked among the favorites by the oddsmakers. Bettors should shy away.
Although two-time Daytona winner Jamie McMurray definitely has potential to get to Victory Lane this weekend, he is a bit of a reach at 15/1 odds. The problem with McMurray is that when he doesn’t win, he has been absolutely terrible at the track. He has finished outside the top 25 in 11 of his 17 starts, and he has finished outside the top 30 on 10 occasions. McMurray is a boom or bust option at best.
Trevor Bayne was the longshot of all longshots prior to his win in the 2011 Daytona 500, and despite the victory, he is still a dark horse in the mind of oddsmakers. He is getting 50/1 odds to win Saturday night, and considering he won at Daytona in his only start, there is no reason that he couldn’t do it again. Bettors may want to gamble that lightning can strike twice for Bayne.
