Everything comes down to Sunday, as the 2018 NASCAR Championship will be decided at Homestead-Miami Speedway at 3 p.m. ET for the Ford EcoBoost 400.
Kevin Harvick, Kyle Busch, Martin Truex Jr. and Joey Logano will be the racers who make up this season’s NASCAR Championship 4. Harvick and Busch are 11-4 co-favorites from the latest 2018 NASCAR at Miami chances, followed by Truex (6-1) and Logano (10-1). Harvick, Busch and Truex have won titles lately, although Logano is in the finals for the next time. With the 2018 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup on the line, and other drivers in the field playing for pleasure, you will want to check out what former Vegas bookmaker and NASCAR handicapper Micah Roberts has to say before locking in your own 2018 NASCAR at Miami picks.
Roberts nailed the NASCAR Playoffs race at Martinsville three weeks ago, calling for Logano to take the checkered flag in Martinsville despite being a 12-1 underdog. Logano bumped Truex Jr. from the way on the last lap for the huge victory.
Roberts also picked the winners of two races of the 2018 NASCAR Playoffs, calling for Brad Keselowski to win Vegas at 12-1 odds and also for Busch to procure his seventh win of the season, he did in Richmond after starting from the 11th place. Roberts also picked Truex Jr. five months ago at Charlotte, that was in line to triumph prior to Jimmie Johnson wiped him out on the final lap.
From the 2017 playoffs, Roberts picked nine of 10 winners. There was no fluke: In 2016, he told readers to rear Hamlin in 15-1 in the Daytona 500. The result: Hamlin edged Truex for the checkered flag. Roberts also pinpointed Hamlin in 40-1 to win at Watkins Glen after that year.
Now, he’s analyzed the 2018 NASCAR Cup championship area from every possible angle and locked in his Ford EcoBoost 400 picks. You can view his whole projected leaderboard just at SportsLine.
We can tell you he isn’t going with Truex, who won this race a year ago, to win in Miami. In reality, Roberts says Truex is closed from the top . Truex hasn’t won since July and has failed to finish better than third since the start of August. He has seized four checkered flags this year, however, Roberts says the are far better worth on the NASCAR at Miami odds board.
Instead, among the 2018 Ford EcoBoost 400 picks he likes to finish close to the front: Brad Keselowski, a 15-1 darkhorse who has been a front-runner on 1.5-mile paths previously.
“He’s directed at 26 laps in his final four starts on 1.5-mile tracks with a third-place finish at Kentucky, a triumph at vegas, a sixth-place jog at Kansas, along with a 12th-place at Texas,” Roberts told SportsLine. “He was seventh at Homestead last season and his best was twice.”
For the win, Roberts is going with a driver he’s been eyeing all season long to win the Ford EcoBoost 400. His also offers a non-championship contender finishing in the top four, and anyone who backs them can hit it big.
