Sports betting is expanding across the United States, and is now available in a NASCAR hotbeds like including Tennessee, Virginia and Indiana.
However, those new to NASCAR betting across the country may be intimidated by the sheer number of sportsbooks now offering NASCAR odds.
With this in mind, I decided to rank my best sportsbooks for betting on NASCAR based on a handful of important factors, like the best place for betting early, props, longshots and more.
Best Sportsbook for Betting NASCAR Props
DraftKings Sportsbook offers a wide array of NASCAR betting markets, including futures, but where it really sets itself apart is with props.
DraftKings posts odds for top-three, top-five and top-10 finishes, driver matchups and the manufacturer of the winning car, among others.
Best Sportsbook for Betting NASCAR Longshots
When it comes to NASCAR longshots, this is a tie between FanDuel Sportsbook and BetMGM.
FanDuel consistently has the best longshot odds for drivers to win the race outright. So if you think your deep sleeper can come through in a big way and take the checkered flag, then FanDuel is the place for you.
On the other hand, BetMGM provides the best longshot odds for props, like top-five and top-10 finishes.
Do you think your longshot can sneak into the top five or top 10, but don't feel confident enough for an outright bet to win? Then be sure to check out BetMGM's longshot prop offerings.
Best Sportsbook for Betting NASCAR Overall
In my opinion, DraftKings Sportsbook is the best sportsbook for betting on NASCAR.
Now, smart NASCAR bettors should be sure to have as many accounts as possible in order to shop for the best odds no matter what wager they're making, but DraftKings' history of being the first sportsbook to post NASCAR odds each week, as well as its mix of offerings for all three national series (Cup, XFINITY and Trucks) make it the premier sportsbook for betting on NASCAR.
