2025 Daytona 500 props, odds, best bets, expert predictions ...

Denny Hamlin has three Daytona 500 victories, putting him in elite company heading into the 2025 Daytona 500 on Sunday. Jimmie Johnson, who is not locked into the Daytona 500 field, has two wins in this race, while no one else in the 2025 Daytona 500 starting lineup has more than one. Hamlin is considered one of the top Daytona 500 contenders due to his history of success in this race and is 12-1 in the latest 2025 Daytona 500 odds. Should you include Hamlin in your 2025 Daytona 500 bets? Kyle Busch is the +1100 favorite in the 2025 Daytona 500 odds, followed by Hamlin (+1200), Ryan Blaney (+1200), Joey Logano (+1300), and Chase Elliott (+1500).

Kyle Larson is winless in his 21 Cup Series races at Daytona International Speedway, but is still one of the favorites at +1300, which will make for plenty of tough questions to answer as you make your 2025 Daytona 500 bets. The green flag is set to drop at 1:30 p.m. ET after the start time was moved up an hour due to rain. Before entering any 2025 Daytona 500 props or NASCAR parlay picks on sites like PrizePicks, DraftKings Pick6, Sleeper Fantasy, and Underdog Fantasy, you need to see what elite expert auto racing handicappers Phil Bobbitt and Steve Greco have to say.

2025 Daytona 500 prop picks

One of Bobbitt and Greco's top NASCAR bets: They are backing William Byron to finish ahead of Brad Keselowski in a head-to-head prop that pays +105. Byron finished inside the top 15 in the Daytona 500 in 2022 and 2023 before breaking through with a win last year. He also won the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona in the 2020 fall race, leading 24 laps in that victory. 

Byron is in his eighth full-time season as a driver of the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet, and he has 13 career victories. Keselowski has been successful at superspeedways during his career, but he has not cracked the top 20 in his last two attempts in the Daytona 500. Bobbitt and Greco are taking Byron as the value pick at plus-money in this head-to-head matchup. See what other NASCAR prop picks they like at SportsLine.
