The first of four scheduled Excursions to Virginia is on Sunday, March 24th Using the 71st running of Their STP 500 at the Martinsville Speedway in Ridgeway, Virginia.

The Martinsville Speedway is the shortest trail in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. The STP 500 is the first of two races here with the second one being the very first Data 500 at the NASCAR Playoffs.

Clint Bowyer won the race this past year and this year, another loaded field is set to enter the race with various drivers who can definitely win the occasion. Let us take a look at who the oddsmakers think are likely to be the drivers to observe this weekend.

“Racing” The Favorites

Kyle Busch is the favorite to win the STP 500. After winning the Ticket Guardian 500 in Arizona last March 10th, Busch kept the pace with another victory in the Car Club 400 in California. With back to back wins at the previous two weekends, no question Kyle Busch deserves to be the +162 favorite here. Busch has finished no lower than 6th place in six from his last seven races entire and when it comes to the STP 500, he won here in 2016, ended runner-up in the past two decades and has put at 5th in each of his last seven appearances here in the Martinsville Speedway.

Martin Truex Jr. set 8th last week in the Automobile Club Speedway. The 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR collection Cup winner has five Top 10 finishes in seven races this year including three in the Top 5. Heading to the weekend, Trues has finished no worse than fourth in his last three races in the Martinsville Speedway.

2017 winner Brad Keselowski has placed at 6th in four out of the last six appearances in the STP 500. Keselowski also loves racing at the Martinsville Speedway as he has completed no lower than 5th in six out of his last eight races .

Joey Logano finished alongside Busch in California last weekend however while he came up short again, Logano has three Top 5 finishes already this season, including a win at the Pennzoil 400 final month at Las Vegas. It is interesting that he’s won only once here in Martinsville Speedway but that success came in his final race , the First Data 500 past October 2018.

Denny Hamlin has not picked up a victory since his triumph in the Daytona 500 last season but he has surely been consistent. Hamlin is a 6.8 ending in his first five races this year and is doing a good job holding his own at the Drivers Championship. Hamlin has won thrice, the last being in 2015, with only Richard Petty, Darren Waltrip, and Rusty Wallace winning over him. In addition, he holds two victories at the Martinsville Speedway while racing at the Camping Truck World Series.
