After an exciting start to the season, the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series continues this week with the 2020 FanShield 500 on Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET. Our proven projection model has simulated this event at Phoenix Raceway 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 computer model simulates every race 10,000 times, taking into account a slew of factors including track history and recent results.

The model began its season paying out big by picking Denny Hamlin to win his second consecutive Daytona 500 at 10-1. It also crushed its NASCAR picks last year, hitting nine of the top 10 drivers at the Go Bowling at The Glen and calling Martin Truex Jr. to win the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma. Anybody who has followed it has seen HUGE returns! 

For NASCAR at Phoenix, we can tell you the model is high on Brad Keselowski, an 11-1 long shot in the latest NASCAR odds. And a massive shocker: Martin Truex Jr., one of the top Vegas favorites at 9-2, barely cracks the top five! There are far better values in a loaded field.

The model also is targeting four OTHER drivers with NASCAR at Phoenix odds longer than 10-1 to make a serious run at winning it all, including a surprising darkhorse! Anyone who backs them could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any NASCAR picks.

So who wins the 2020 FanShield 500? And which long shots stun NASCAR? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the full projected leaderboard for the FanShield 500, all from the model that just nailed the Daytona 500!
