The NASCAR Cup Series is set to close out its 2026 road‑course schedule at Sonoma Raceway, where the Toyota/Save Mart 350 will be run under the late‑afternoon sun. The race is slated to begin at 3:30 p.m. Eastern and will be broadcast live on TNT, with a companion radio feed on the Performance Racing Network.
The Odds Landscape
Oddsmakers have opened the market with Shane van Gisbergen as the clear favorite at -150, a reflection of his dominance on similar layouts. Tyler Reddick and Connor Zilisch sit closely behind at +850 each, while Kyle Larson, a two‑time Sonoma winner, is listed at +900 as he looks to snap a year‑long winless streak. Ryan Blaney, Michael McDowell, Ty Gibbs, Chase Briscoe and Chase Elliott round out the field at +1400, +1500, +2000, +2000 and +3500 respectively.
Who’s Got the Edge
Van Gisbergen’s recent form is hard to ignore; he has captured six of the last eight road‑course races, including a victory at the Chicago Street Race. Larson, despite a winless stretch, brings two prior Sonoma triumphs and a reputation for excelling on twisty circuits. Blaney’s four top‑10 finishes in his last six starts and McDowell’s three top‑five results at the same venue add depth to a competitive mix that also features rising talent like Zilisch, who impressed in his debut road‑course outing.
The excitement extends beyond the track, with DraftKings Sportsbooks, Trackhouse Racing and Spire Motorsports all offering betting markets and promotional tie‑ins ahead of the event. Fans can place wagers online or tune in to the live coverage on TNT, while the race’s outcome could shape playoff picture narratives heading into the season finale.
