Drivers That Could Win 

Michael McDowell appears to not be going anywhere anytime soon. He previously had stumbled into the year, not even ranked or on anyone’s radar. 

McDowell recently took hold of the Daytona 500 and amazed fans. Not too surprisingly, if you look at his history there, it was his third top 10 finish for this event out of his last four Daytona races.

Christopher Bell is another name to watch out for on this list of drivers that could steal the race. He recently won at the Daytona Road Course; then again, he was not anywhere near being a favorite. 

This also marked his first career Cup Series win. As you can see, there are names out there that can steal wins at any given moment. 

Chase Elliot is another name to pay attention to. He is definitely a fan favorite heading into this event, especially after taking control of the Cup Series in 2020 and having a second-place finish at this event. 

However, Elliot has had somewhat mixed results so far. This really has not been by his own driving, but rather other drivers capitalizing on the moment. 

Potential Winning Pick 

Denny Hamlin (91.768)

Hamlin arguably has shown to have a greater start of the season than compared to what he accomplished last year at this time. Looking at the rankings as they stand, he is in third place for the Cup Series rankings. 

Looking at what he has done so far, he has three top 10 finishes in addition to just one race out of the top 10. Looking even further, two of those races happened within the top five and with the recent ones resulting from the Daytona 500 and the Daytona Road Course.
