Chase Elliott Out of Contention as he outruns the stated tron of..

HMS ace Kyle Larson blasts into the Phoenix race week, riding on the momentum of his Vegas win while his teammate and NASCAR’s golden boy, Chase Elliott seems to be well off from the picture as the #5 driver gets the odds.

Just like that, the man who ended his day on a sour note with a nasty DNF at Atlanta is back with a bang. The #5 HMS driver, Kyle Larson did not have the opening he wanted but he managed to get a respectable 11th-place finish at the chaotic race in Daytona. Then came Atlanta where the #5 Chevy got odd rails, ending his day at P32.

But all it took for the 2021 Cup Series champion was one race to change the tide. Now with his absolute domination at Vegas, Larson’s stock is back to an all-time high with bookies and fans betting their money on the #5 driver instead of his teammate/rival Chase Elliott. Leading 181-laps of the 267-lap feature really did it for Larson who topped the BetArizona charts closely followed by the reigning and defending Cup Series champion, Ryan Blaney whose #12 Ford comes with a solid reputation on one-mile, one-and-a-half-mile tracks.

The #5 driver led 181 laps out of the 267 and won all three stages of the race. This complete show of speed and skill on the track has put him right at the heels of Chase Elliott in being the driver who has won the most stages for HMS. Theaàpàq 2020 Cup Series champion currently stands highest on the list with 37 stage wins so far compared to Larson’s 34 wins, placing him in the second spot. Whereas William Byron trails further behind the two with 21 wins and Alex Bowman occupies the last position with six stage wins
