Three teams have had a stranglehold on the NASCAR at Texas Victory Lane recently, as 15 of the last 16 races at Texas Motor Speedway have been claimed by Hendrick, Stewart-Haas or Joe Gibbs Racing. Thus, the top of the 2025 Wurth 400 odds at DraftKings Sportsbook features drivers from those teams like Kyle Larson (+500), William Byron (+600) and Denny Hamlin (+800). Considering the teams’ successes, perhaps it would be prudent to target 2025 NASCAR Texas sleepers from them, such as Chase Briscoe (+1400), Alex Bowman (+2200) or Ty Gibbs (+2500). Austin Cindric prevailed last week at Talladega as a +1600 NASCAR longshot, so it’s not just the big-name drivers to consider for Wurth 400 picks. The green flag drops at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Before entering any 2025 Wurth 400 picks, be sure to see the latest 2025 NASCAR at Texas predictions from SportsLine’s proven projection model. Developed by SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, the proprietary NASCAR prediction model simulates every race 10,000 times and has nailed a whopping 20 winners since 2021, including two winners in 2025.
SportsLine simulated the Wurth 400 2025 10,000 times. Here are the three NASCAR longshots to target, according to the model:
Chase Briscoe (+1400 at Bet365)
After spending four years with Stewart-Haas Racing, Briscoe then linked up with another team with a strong history of success at TMS in Joe Gibbs Racing. Like Stewart-Haas, JGR has four victories at the track, and Briscoe has his own impressive resume at Texas. He’s one of three drivers with top 10s at each of the last three NASCAR Texas races, and only two drivers better his average finish of 7.0 at the speedway over that span. He’s finished in the top 15 in all four of his official Texas Motor Speedway starts and even notched a fourth-place finish when TMS hosted the NASCAR All-Star Open in 2021. Briscoe is a steal at Bet365.
Kyle Busch (+1600 at DraftKings)
History has shown that as long as Busch doesn’t wreck his vehicle, then he will be in contention for the NASCAR at Texas checkered flag. Over his last 10 starts at Texas, he has seven top 10s, with the three outliers all being due to accidents or DVP. He’s also led for multiple laps in seven of those starts and has collected two stage victories along the way. Busch’s prosperity at TMS is part of his success on 1.5-miles intermediate tracks as a whole. He has the most top 5s (76) and top 10s (116) of all active drivers at 1.5-miles tracks, and that’s not just because of the high volume of starts he’s had on these circuits. Busch’s career average finish of 13.3 on tracks of this length is second-best amongst active drivers.
Chase Elliott (+2000 at DraftKings)
After a couple of down years, by his standards, Elliott is back in contention for the Cup Series crown, sitting in fourth place entering the Wurth 400 2025. He ranks third in top 10s (six), with the third-best average finish (10.9) this season, and now he’s stepping onto the track where his last NASCAR victory came at. Elliott won this race a year ago by taking the lead from Hamlin and leading for a total of 39 laps. Elliott is one of three Hendrick drivers to win the last four NASCAR Texas races, and the other two — Larson and Byron — have the shortest odds. Thus, there’s value in grabbing him at +2000 at DraftKings as Elliott is listed at +1600 at other sportsbooks.

Former two-division champ Alex Pereira claims he was hacked after social media post suggests issues with UFC
Getty Images There appears to be an issue for former UFC middleweight and light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira, just not the one that many thought on Wednesday. Pereira's X account, formerly Twitter, posted about his frustrations with UFC and that he's considering retirement, but Pereira posted a video on social media shortly after claiming he was hacked. "I always answered the UFC's calls, but if they want to play with me, we can do that," Pereira's account wrote. "I've never spoken poorly of the UFC, but with what I've just heard, I'm disheartened. "I've already had thoughts of not fighting anymore, and after what was just relayed to me, this may be the start."

Caso de indisciplina de Gabriel Veron pode acelerar o planejamento do Santos em reformular o elenco
O Santos volta a viver problemas internos, estes motivados por um caso de indisciplina envolvendo o atacante Gabriel Veron. No entanto, tal momento conturbado pode fazer com que o clube tenha mais facilitado um processo de reformular o elenco a partir do meio do ano, como coloca o GE. Segundo o portal, o ato envolvendo o atacante deverá ‘acelerar’ tal reformulação e evitar o que seria uma ‘contaminação’ do elenco em meio a um momento no qual a equipe vive crise no Brasileirão, sendo vice-lanterna, e com seu principal jogador (Neymar) ainda fora por lesão. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE No último sábado (3), Veron chegou atrasado ao treino e recebeu da diretoria do Peixe multa de 30% de seu salário, Além do atraso, o atacante teria chegado ao CT Rei Pelé ‘sem estar nas devidas condições para trabalhar’, segundo as palavras da […]

Oba partneři o radostné události informovali se čtyřdenním odstupem na sociálních sítích. „Jsem máma, jsme rodina,“ napsala Ogrodníková. „Náš malý chlapeček, který přišel na svět o tři týdny dříve,“ doplnila k fotografii s novorozeným synem a poděkovala ostravské porodnici za „krásný průběh porodu do vody“.Vrána s Ogrodníkovou vychovává svého devítiletého syna Lea, jehož maminka Lindsey tragicky zemřela v roce 2021.
