The 2024 Coca-Cola 600 will take place on Sunday at Charlotte Motor Speedway and it's the longest race on the NASCAR schedule. The green flag will drop at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday and is scheduled for 400 laps around the 1.5-mile oval. 

Kyle Larson was attempting double duty on Sunday but is expected to miss the start of the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 after rain delayed the start of the Indianapolis 500. Larson was listed as the +475 favorite in the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 odds. Denny Hamlin is now the +600 favorite, followed by Tyler Reddick (+700), Ryan Blaney (+850) and the trio of William Byron, Martin Truex Jr. and Chris Buescher all at +1000 in the NASCAR at Charlotte odds.

Before scouring the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 starting lineup and making any 2024 NASCAR at Charlotte predictions, you NEED to see the latest 2024 Coca-Cola 600 picks from SportsLine's proven projection model.

Our proven projection model has simulated the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 10,000 times and come 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 was red-hot during the 2023 season, 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). The model correctly predicted winners in two playoff races as well, with Ryan Blaney scoring a 12-1 payout at Talladega and Larson winning at 9-2 in Las Vegas. 

It also called its first victory of the 2024 season with Larson winning again in Las Vegas for a 21-5 payout then predicted a Denny Hamlin's wins in Bristol at 5-1 and Richmond at 17-4. It impressively nailed five of Larson's wins during his historic season in 2021 too. All told, the model has nailed a whopping 18 winners since 2021 and hit nine last year alone! Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks saw HUGE returns.

Now, the model has dialed in on NASCAR at Charlotte and released its projections.

The model knows Charlotte Motor Speedway first began hosting the NASCAR Cup Series in 1960 and the Coca-Cola 600 is widely considered to be one of the biggest races on the NASCAR schedule. It's the longest race of the season but there's added difficulty with the transition from day to night, with track temperatures changing dramatically and forcing a significant shift in tire strategy as the sun goes down. Ryan Blaney is the defending champion and he'd go on to win the NASCAR Cup Series championship, as did Kyle Larson in 2021.

For the 2024 Coca-Cola 600, we can tell you the model is high on Ty Gibbs, even though he's a +1600 longshot in the latest 2024 NASCAR at Charlotte odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday. And a massive shocker: Ryan Blaney, one of the Vegas favorites, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top 10! There are far better values in the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 starting lineup.

The model is also targeting THREE other drivers with 2024 NASCAR at Charlotte odds longer than +1000 to make a serious run at the checkered flag! Anyone who backs these drivers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any NASCAR picks.

So who wins the 2024 Coca-Cola 600, and which EPIC longshots is a MUST-BACK? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the full projected NASCAR at Charlotte leaderboard, all from the model that's nailed 18 winners, including three already this year!
