By the time we get to Phoenix, just four will be standing going for the Bill France Cup. <em><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.draftkings.com\/event\/nascar-cup-series-championship-2025\/668ec2f3-c5f8-470f-836b-08dcfcc4cee1\">DraftKings<\/a><\/em> has released the betting lines for drivers to win the 2025 Cup Championship, with two clear favorites.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Christopher Bell: +550<\/h2>\n<p>Bell, the Joe Gibbs Racing star, has quickly become one of the best wheelmen on the circuit. He made the Championship 4 in 2022 and \u201923 before narrowly missing out this past season. A nine-time winner over his last four seasons at JGR, Bell looks primed to make another Championship 4 run in 2025.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kyle Larson: +550<\/h2>\n<p>Joining Bell with the best odds is Larson, the 2021 champion. Larson is on the shortlist for best drivers in the world and was dominant at times in 2024. He took the checkered flag six times \u2014 leading all drivers \u2014 and led a series-leading 1,700 laps. Barring an unlikely fall-off, Larson will be a serious contender in 2025.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">William Byron: +600<\/h2>\n<p>Byron has quietly become one of NASCAR\u2019s most consistent drivers. He has finished sixth or better in the last three seasons, making the Championship 4 in 2023 and \u201924. While not as popular with fans as his Hendrick Motorsports teammates in Larson and <strong>Chase Elliott<\/strong>, the reigning Daytona 500 winner is just as talented.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ryan Blaney: +650<\/h2>\n<p>Blaney, the 2023 champion, nearly went back-to-back this past season. He finished second in the season finale at Phoenix, bested only by his Team Penske teammate <strong>Joey Logano<\/strong>. The Penske cars have shown to come to life in the playoffs and that shouldn\u2019t be any different in 2025.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Denny Hamlin: +750<\/h2>\n<p>Hamlin has done just about everything you can do in NASCAR \u2014 except win a championship. Now 44, it\u2019s fair to question how many realistic chances Hamlin has at getting it done. But to this point, the JGR driver and 23XI Racing co-owner has shown no regression. Will full-time season No. 20 finally be the year for Hamlin?<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Joey Logano: +850<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not an even year for Logano. Yes, all of his three championships have come in an even year. But like Blaney, he knows how to win when it matters most. A fourth title would put him alongside some elite company such as <strong>Richard Petty<\/strong>, <strong>Dale Earnhardt<\/strong>, <strong>Jimmie Johnson<\/strong> and <strong>Jeff Gordon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tyler Reddick: +850<\/h2>\n<p>Reddick\u2019s career has taken off at 23XI and last year, he proved he can hang with NASCAR\u2019s best. Reddick won the Regular Season Championship and finished fourth in the points standings. The best still feels like it\u2019s yet to come for Reddick, and perhaps 2025 will be his year.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chase Elliott: +1000<\/h2>\n<p>NASCAR\u2019s Most Popular Driver was very consistent in 2024, finishing outside the top 20 in just four races. But he seldom had the best car in the field, winning just once at Texas. Still only 29 and in one of the best rides in the sport, Elliott can\u2019t be counted out. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Chase Briscoe<\/strong>: +1800 <br \/><strong>Kyle Busch<\/strong>: +2200 <br \/><strong>Ty Gibbs<\/strong>: +2200<br \/><strong>Brad Keselowski<\/strong>: +2800 <br \/><strong>Ross Chastain<\/strong>: +3000 <br \/><strong>Alex Bowman<\/strong>: +3500 <br \/><strong>Chris Buescher<\/strong>: +4000 <br \/><strong>Shane van Gisbergen<\/strong>: +6500<br \/><strong>Bubba Wallace<\/strong>: +6500 <br \/><strong>Austin Cindric<\/strong>: +10000 <br \/><strong>Daniel Suarez<\/strong>: +12000 <br \/><strong>Carson Hocevar<\/strong>: +13000 <br \/><strong>Noah Gragson<\/strong>: +15000 <br \/><strong>Austin Dillon<\/strong>: +15000 <br \/><strong>Michael McDowell<\/strong>: +15000 <br \/><strong>Josh Berry<\/strong>: +17000 <br \/><strong>Zane Smith<\/strong>: +17000 <br \/><strong>Ricky Stenhouse Jr.<\/strong>: +20000 <br \/><strong>Erik Jones<\/strong>: +20000 <br \/><strong>AJ Allmendinger<\/strong>: +20000 <br \/><strong>Todd Gilliland<\/strong>: +25000 <br \/><strong>Justin Haley<\/strong>: +25000 <br \/><strong>Cole Custer<\/strong>: +25000 <br \/><strong>John Hunter Nemechek<\/strong>: +40000 <br \/><strong>Ty Dillon<\/strong>: +50000 <\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/pro\/news\/2025-nascar-cup-championship-odds-betting-lines-released-before-start-of-season\/\">2025 NASCAR Cup Championship Odds: Betting lines released before start of season<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/\">On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season officially gets underway next month with the 67th running&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82063","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82063","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=82063"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82063\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=82063"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=82063"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=82063"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
