The NASCAR Cup Series schedule continues on Saturday with the 2022 Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 400 at Martinsville Speedway. The green flag drops at 7:30 p.m. ET and Martin Truex Jr. is the 9-2 favorite in the 2022 Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 400 odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Our proven projection model has simulated the 2022 NASCAR Martinsville race 10,000 times and come up with a surprising leaderboard.

Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction computer model takes into account a slew of factors including track history and recent results.

In the 2021 season, McClure nailed Martin Truex Jr. to win at Martinsville for a strong 3-1 payout. Then it called Chase Elliott to win at Road America for a 5-2 payout. McClure's model also called Larson's win at Texas for an 11-4 payout and his win at Kansas for a 9-4 payout in back-to-back weeks before nailing Larson to win the season finale in Phoenix to claim the 2021 NASCAR Cup Championship. 

In total, it nailed five of Larson's wins during a historic season and has also gone 12-5 on its head-to-head matchup predictions to start the 2022 season. Then two weeks ago it was high on Ross Chastain to win, giving him a far better shot to win than his 40-1 odds implied. Anyone who followed its lead on those plays saw HUGE returns.

Now, the model has dialed in on NASCAR at Martinsville 2022 and released its projections. 

We can tell you the model is high on Joey Logano, even though he's a 10-1 long shot in the latest 2022 NASCAR at Martinsville odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday. And a massive shocker: Chase Elliott, one of the Vegas favorites at 7-1, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top 10! There are far better values in the 2022 Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 400 starting grid.

The model is also targeting two other drivers with 2022 NASCAR at Martinsville odds of 10-1 or longer to make a serious run at the checkered flag! Anyone who backs these drivers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any NASCAR picks.
