Everything is bigger in Texas, as well as every passing race, therefore is your advantage Joe Gibbs Racing and Team Penske drivers are creating on the contest at NASCAR’s Cup Series.
Team Penske drivers and joe Gibbs Racing have won every race so far in 2019. Kevin Harvick, the preseason favorite to win the Cup Series title, is winless on the season but is the preferred, listed at 5/1 odds at the Westgate SuperBook, to win his fourth-career race at Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday.
Harvick has top-10 finishes at the last nine races at the 1.5-mile monitor, including a pair of wins and three runner-up showings. He has five Xfinity Series wins at Texas and a Truck Series win.
“There’s so much change this year,” that the Stewart-Haas racer said in a statement concerning the new technical principles in 2019. “You have to lean on that past experience. For us, I really feel like that’s why he have had finishes the first few weeks. I really don’t think as a team we feel like our automobiles are where they must be, but that experience has resulted in decent finishes so we are able to change the things we need to when we get home.”
Texas will feature the baseline 2019 rules package with a tapered-spacer engine which can create about 550 horsepower. This weekend’s configuration was initially used this season at Las Vegas, a race won by Joey Logano.

When it happens remains to be seen, but the slow beginning has created gaming worth for Harvick not generally seen at Texas, although he is the favorite. For the 2018 spring race at Fort Worth, Harvick had 3/1 odds, and also for the 2018 fall race, he was listed at 11/4.
It is not like Ford is off to a slow start, either. The Mustang has got four poles and three wins to start the season, most recently by Brad Keselowski, who headed 446-of-500 laps to take the checkers at Martinsville.

NASCAR in Texas race data Date/Time: Sunday, March 31/3:00 p.m. ET
Race Distance: 334 Laps/501 Miles
Track Shape: Oval
Track Length: 1.5 miles
Banking: 24 degrees
2018 Winner: Kyle Busch
Sunday’s race marks the fifth time Cup cars have raced over the 1.5-mile trail because it underwent its second re-pave. The track also included a drainage system on the frontstretch and backstretch, and re-profiled Turns 1 and 2 (banking reduced from 24 to 20 degrees, racing surface expanded from 60 to 80 feet wide). The track is the most like Kentucky and Las Vegas, but outcomes from Texas prior to the 2017 season shouldn’t longer be considered relevant.
