2024 NASCAR Phoenix Raceway Odds: Shriners Children’s 500
Phoenix Raceway is currently hosting the Shriners Children’s 500 NASCAR event, which is the fourth race in the 2024 Cup Series schedule and a major event for Arizona sports betting. The race is scheduled to start at 12:30 p.m. local time (3:30 p.m. Eastern). Kyle Larson, the winner of the most recent series race, will be participating. Larson, who drives for Hendrick Motorsports, demonstrated his skill at the Pennzoil 400 in Las Vegas last weekend by winning both stages and the race, securing his first win of the season.
He was the top choice at DraftKings AZ last week with +400 odds in Vegas and ended up leading 181 of the 267 laps.
Phoenix Raceway NASCAR Odds: Shriners Children’s 500
Larson is widely regarded as the frontrunner in the Shriners Children’s 500 at Phoenix Raceway. According to DraftKings, he is the favorite with odds of +600, just ahead of defending series champion Ryan Blaney at +700 and Larson’s Hendrick teammate William Byron, who won the Daytona 500, at +750.
Arizona sports betting app users should keep an eye on Joey Logano (+1400) and Kyle Busch (+1200), both three-time winners in Phoenix, for potentially valuable bets this weekend. Denny Hamlin (+900), who claimed the pole position for Sunday’s race, is also worth considering.
NASCAR Phoenix Starting Lineup
After the qualifying rounds, the lineup for the Shriners Children’s 500 has been set. Denny Hamlin, piloting the #11 car for Joe Gibbs Racing, clinched the top position in both Group A and the 10-driver final round. His teammate, Ty Gibbs, earned the second spot on the starting grid.
The fifth and 12th starting positions at Phoenix Raceway were secured by the last two victors, William Byron and Ross Chastain. Ryan Blaney, the defending NASCAR Cup Series Champion who came in second in the last two Phoenix races, will start in 16th place.

Blaney and Logano Lead the Pack Among Active Drivers in Recent NASCAR Phoenix Races, Dating Back to February 2021
Blaney has consistently been the best driver at Phoenix’s NASCAR Cup Series in recent races, with an average fourth place finish in six races at the one-mile oval since 2021.
Kevin Harvick clinched his series title with a second-place finish in Phoenix last November. Despite being a nine-time Phoenix winner and ranking second in best average finish in the past six Cup races, Harvick has retired from active competition since 2021. Arizona sports bettors can take advantage of various wagering options for the race, including prop bets offered at select sites.
