The NASCAR Cup Series season will continue on Sunday when the 2025 Cook Out 400 is held at Martinsville Speedway. The 0.526-mile concrete oval is shaped like a paperclip and the tight corners make it one of the most exciting tracks on the NASCAR schedule. Ryan Blaney has won two of the last three races at Martinsville and is a +500 co-favorite in the 2025 Cook Out 400 odds along with last week's winner, Kyle Larson. Christopher Bell is on the pole. The green flag drops at 3 p.m. ET. Before making any 2025 NASCAR at Martinsville predictions, you NEED to see the latest 2025 Cook Out 400 picks from SportsLine's proven projection model.
Our proven projection model has simulated the 2025 Cook Out 400 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 began the 2025 season by calling Chase Elliott's win in the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray for a +300 payout. Then at Daytona, it was also high on William Byron despite +2000 odds and it went on to predict Kyle Larson as a +350 winner in Miami. The model also called its first victory of the 2024 season with Larson winning in Las Vegas for a 21-5 payout then predicted 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 20 winners since 2021 and has hit two winners already in 2025! Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks could have seen HUGE returns.
Now, the model has dialed in on NASCAR at Martinsville 2025 and released its projections.
For the 2025 Cook Out 400, we can tell you the model is high on Josh Berry, even though he's a longshot at +3000 in the latest 2025 NASCAR at Martinsville odds.
