The NASCAR Cup Series season continues on Sunday with the 2023 FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway. The green flag is scheduled to drop at 2:30 p.m. ET and there are only four races remaining until the start of the 2023 NASCAR Playoffs. Denny Hamlin is the 13-2 favorite in the 2023 FireKeepers Casino 400 odds, while teammate Martin Truex Jr. and 2021 NASCAR champion Kyle Larson are 7-1.

Our proven NASCAR projection model has simulated the race 10,000 times and came up with a surprising leaderboard.

Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model takes into account a slew of factors including track history and recent results.

McClure's model is off to a red-hot start this season, already nailing Martin Truex Jr.'s Clash win (20-1) as well as his win in New Hampshire (11-2), Joey Logano's Duel win (8-1), Kyle Busch's Fontana victory (10-1), Denny Hamlin's triumph in Kansas (6-1) and Kyle Larson's wins at Martinsville (6-1) and the NASCAR All-Star Race (13-2). In Austin, it listed Tyler Reddick as one of its best values and he went on to win for a 10-1 payout. It also impressively nailed five of Larson's wins during his historic season in 2021. All told, the model has nailed a whopping 13 winners since 2021! Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks saw HUGE returns.    

Now, the model has dialed in on the 2023 FireKeepers Casino 400 and released its projections.

For the 2023 FireKeepers Casino 400, we can tell you the model is high on Chase Elliott, even though he's a 15-1 longshot in the latest 2023 NASCAR at Michigan odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday. And a massive shocker: Kyle Larson, one of the Vegas favorites at 7-1, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top five! There are far better values in the 2023 FireKeepers Casino 400 starting lineup.

The model is also targeting TWO OTHER drivers with 2023 NASCAR at Michigan odds of 11-1 or higher to make a serious run at the checkered flag! Anyone who backs these drivers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any NASCAR picks.
