If variety is the spice of life, gamblers and fans are loving the 2021 NASCAR Cup season. Thus far, only Martin Truex Jr. is a repeat winner this year. Ironically enough, standings leader Denny Hamlin still hasn’t entered victory lane. Truex was the NASCAR betting winner on Sunday at Darlington. It was an impressive and dominant victory. Second place in the standings behind Hamlin is his current standing. William Byron, Joey Logano, and Ryan Blaney completed the top five. Kyle Larson, Kevin Harvick, Chase Elliott, Brad Keselowski, and Kyle Busch round out the top ten.
