| NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Toyota/Save Mart 350 |
The Toyota/Save Mart 350 will be filled with the usual fast-paced action of NASCAR and all it has to offer, but it will also give race fans a reason to sit back and enjoy a few cold ones and make a wager on the race. Online sportsbook BetPhoenix is the NASCAR race betting headquarters with most of the big races covered with great wagering opportunities. Here is a look at a few racers that could take the checkered flag this weekend. Marcos Ambrose: He's not going to stall on the hill under caution this year. The Richard Petty Motorsports cars have been much improved on speedways this year, but this is by far Ambrose's best chance to win. It says here that he gets his first Cup victory at Sonoma on Sunday. – Nick Bromberg Let's add it up: He's the best road racer in the sport; he should have won last year; and he's putting together the best season of his short Cup career. He's the obvious choice for a reason. – Jay Hart Tony Stewart: It's time. Stewart has seen leads and wins slip away time after time this season, and right now he's on the cusp of missing the Chase. He's got two wins and eight top 10s in 12 races at Sonoma. He has a decided advantage over a good chunk of the field just by being comfortable turning right, and so it'll be up to him to qualify well and stay ahead of the inevitable wrecks that will ensue in the pack.– Jay Busbee With the racers selected here are three important things to watch on race day. 1. Filling the tank: Just about every week, someone leaves pit road without getting a full tank of gas. The new fueling process has wreaked havoc on pit crews, and nowhere could that be more significant than Sonoma. Fuel will be a factor – more on that in a bit – and not getting the tank full could mean the difference between winning and finishing 20th. 2. Managing fuel mileage: There are 110 laps in Sunday's race. A typical fuel run is around 30 laps. Crew chiefs work their strategies backward on road courses, so watch as drivers come in for fuel just after Lap 20 or so. That puts them within the window to make it on just two more stops. 3. Don't be fooled by the road-course ringers: There will be a lot of talk about Boris Said. Don't buy into it. Said is always a great story and he's likely to finish in the top 10 (if he doesn't mess up on pit road), but a road ringer has never won a Cup race. Finally here are some interesting story-lines to pay attention to this weekend. It's a little known fact that Infineon is one of the most contact-heavy tracks on the Cup circuit. Jeff Gordon made like a bumper car in last year's race, running into Martin Truex Jr. more than once, and Tony Stewart took out Boris Said after the race. Looks for tempers to flare. – Jay Hart Sonoma is a key race for the wild card, as several drivers farther down in the standings could sneak up and grab a win. And the way things are shaking out right now, with the big dogs winning their way into the top 10, one win might be enough to get you into the Chase. Juan Pablo Montoya is15th in the standings and Marcos Ambrose is 21st. A victory could be enough to cement them inside the top 20. Could the road courses have a dramatic effect on the Chase after all? – Jay Busbee The road-course ringers have shifted to Elkhart Lake this weekend. While Boris Said and others are competing at Sonoma, the likes of Ron Fellows, Max Papis and Jacques Villeneuve are competing in the Nationwide race. A ringer won't win at Sonoma, but there's a good chance one will on Saturday. – Nick Bromberg This weekend will be a very exciting race and there are more than a few reasons to tune in and wager on the big race.
