Ryan Blaney will try to win his second consecutive race at Pocono Raceway when he takes part in the 2025 Great American Getaway 400 on Sunday. Blaney dominated the race a year ago, leading a race-high 44 laps en route to the victory. This season, Blaney has registered seven top-10 finishes, including a win at the Cracker Barrel 400 in Nashville. He finished 14th a week ago at the 2025 Viva Mexico 250 at Mexico City. Sunday's race is scheduled to start at 2 p.m. ET.
Denny Hamlin is the +450 favorite, with Kyle Larson at +550, William Byron and Blaney at +700 and Christopher Bell at +850 in the latest 2025 NASCAR at Pocono Raceway odds from DraftKings Sportsbook. Hamlin won the pole position for Sunday's race with a lap of 172.599 mph around the 2.5-mile track.
Before making any Pocono Raceway picks, you NEED to see what CBS Sports NASCAR writer Steven Taranto has to say.
Taranto, who moonlights as a sim racer and has 20 career wins in iRacing, is the lead NASCAR writer for CBSSports.com. Taranto was red-hot for SportsLine in 2024 as he nailed 17 winners, including 16-1 longshot William Byron at the Daytona 500 and 14-1 longshot Chase Elliott at Texas. Anybody following his NASCAR picks could have seen HUGE returns!
For the 2025 The Great American Getaway, Taranto is high on William Byron (+700). He also has a head-to-head prop bet, with Ty Gibbs (-110) to finish ahead of Ross Chastain (-120). "Gibbs' Pocono history through three starts (Including his Cup debut in 2022, where he finished 16th after hastily being summoned to substitute for Kurt Busch) is already more statistically impressive than Ross Chastain's, as he's never run better than 13th at Pocono and has two DNFs in the last three years – Even if his 2022 DNF came by virtue of getting put in the wall while racing Denny Hamlin for the lead," Taranto said.
Taranto has also identified four other drivers in his 2025 NASCAR Viva Mexico 250 best bets. He's also high on a huge NASCAR longshot who's over 50-1, potentially netting any backer a HUGE payday! You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see his picks before locking in any NASCAR picks of your own.
