Nascar Betting: Johnson Rebounds with Dover Win
Jimmie Johnson, the four-time defending NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion won at Dover International Speedway on Sunday. Nascar betting action at LinesMaker was heavy on Johnson despite a slow start last week. Although struggling in the first race of The Chase of New Hampshire last week, Johnson led 191 of 400 laps to win AAA 400 at Dover and put the naysayers to rest once and for all.
Fellow Chase driver Jeff Burton, who finished as a runner-up, failed to lead any laps. Joey Logano finished third, followed by Chasers Kurt Busch and Carl Edwards in the fourth and fifth position respectively.
Finishing sixth was Chaser Kyle Busch, whereas non-Chasers Paul Menard and Ryan Newman finished in seventh and eighth apiece. Relieved to make it to a top-10 finish, point leader Denny Hamlin ran ninth.
In the point standings, Hamlin is still leading by 35 points over Johnson. Kyle Busch and brother Kurt Busch are at third and fourth place respectively, followed by Harvick and Edwards. Constituting the final six points positions in The Chase are Burton, Gordon, Biffle, Stewart, Kenseth and Bowyer. The series heads to Kansas next Sunday.
Looking forward, NASCAR betting lines have Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin sharing the top spot with 6 to 1 odds to win the series.
