Which drivers have a real chance to take the checkered flag in Daytona? Here are Bob Pockrass' insights:

Joey Logano
+1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
There’s a reason Logano has some of the shortest odds on this list. He won the 2015 Daytona 500 and has three career wins at Talladega. The Team Penske driver is considered one of the best supserspeedway racers around. But beware: He has crashed out in eight of his last 17 starts.

Joey Logano — 2015 Daytona 500 winner — has some of the shortest odds to win the race in 2026.

Chase Briscoe
+2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
Briscoe won the most recent race at a supserspeedway, capturing the victory at Talladega in October. He's oozing confidence after his initial year at Joe Gibbs Racing. Briscoe doesn’t have any enemies and he has the trust of the field to not do anything too out-of-line, which means he could get the right push at the right time.

Can Chase Briscoe's magic at Talladega translate into a win at the Daytona 500?

Austin Dillon
+4000 (bet $10 to win $410 total)
You want one of the long shots? Well, here you go. Chevrolet has a newly designed body, and that could mean that there's a little bit of learning process or it could mean the Chevrolets will work better together. A two-time Daytona winner (including the 2018 Daytona 500), Dillon knows how to get to the front at the track. And the Richard Childress Racing driver knows this is a pivotal season for this organization as it continues to try to improve.

With two Daytona 500 wins under his belt, Austin Dillon could be a long shot worth considering.
