Here are the 10 drivers most likely to win the Daytona 500.
Larson is the favorite to win the 2025 Daytona 500, with odds at +1000. He had an impressive 2024 season, securing six wins and leading 1,700 laps, the most in the Next Gen era.
Close behind Larson, Busch has odds at +1100. He aims to secure his first Daytona 500 victory in his 20th start, a feat reminiscent of Dale Earnhardt's famous win after a 20-year effort.
Also with odds at +1100, Hamlin is a three-time Daytona 500 winner, making him one of six drivers to have won the race at least three times. He will attempt to become the third driver to win the Great American Race on four occasions.
With odds at +1200, Blaney was three-tenths of a second away from winning a second consecutive championship in 2024. His strong run at Bowman Gray Stadium in the Cook Out Clash proves that the No. 12 team will be a force.
Also at +1200 odds, Logano began his title defense with a fourth-place finish at Bowman Gray Stadium. The 2015 Daytona 500 champion and three-time Cup Series champion is looking to get back to weekly contention.
Elliott has odds at +1200 and secured a victory at the preseason NASCAR Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium, showcasing strong form heading into the Daytona 500. He has been solid at superspeedways, and HMS is always strong at the Daytona 500.
With odds at +1400, Keselowski finally ended a 110-race winless streak last season with a victory at Darlington. He will be looking to carry that momentum into the Daytona 500.
Byron has odds at +2000 and is the defending Daytona 500 champion. He has finished third in the NASCAR standings each of the last two seasons while piling up nine wins, 28 top fives, and 42 top-10 finishes.
With odds at +2200, Bell seems to get better with each season that passes. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has made the Championship 4 in two of the last three seasons and was close to another Final Four berth last season.
Reddick has odds at +2500 and continues to march forward in his NASCAR Cup Series career. He made his first appearance in the Cup Series Championship 4 last season and will be looking to build on that success.
