The Favorite: Denny Hamlin’s having a solid season so far. He captured the checkered flag at Las Vegas, has led 603 laps and sits second in the standings. At Talladega, he led 28 laps but ended up finishing 15th. In the Würth 400 last year, Hamlin completed only 73 laps before his car lost power and caught fire, which ended his day. 

One to Watch: Carson Hocevar has been the talk of the town since earning his very first victory in the Cup Series last week at Talladega. Now he’s sixth on the oddsboard to win outright at Texas. After jumping to eighth in Bob Pockrass’s latest power rankings, the FOX Sports Motorsports Insider noted that Hocevar “probably feels like he’s on top of the world.” While Hocevar finished this race 24th last year, he did capture the pole at Texas Motor Speedway in 2025 with a lap speed time of 191.659 mph.
