2025 Bass Pro Shops Night Race NASCAR Odds, Time, and Prediction

Chase Briscoe has been in the spotlight since the start of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs, winning the first race of the postseason and finishing second (as we correctly predicted) last weekend. He now wants to do well in the Bristol Night Race, an event he hasn’t won before.

You know who’s won it in the past? Last weekend’s race winner, Denny Hamlin, did it on three occasions, most recently in 2023. Kyle Larson won it last year, which was his second win.

These guys are – in our eyes – the top favorites to win the September 13 race. Let’s see which one of them we predict will get to the top of the podium.

Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson Just Love Driving at Bristol

Denny Hamlin has won the Bass Pro Shops Night Race three times (2012, 2019, and 2023) already. He’s also won the Food City 500 race, which takes place at Bristol as well. He did this in 2023.

The man who won it last year is Kyle Larson. It was his first win in that event, but he also has two wins at the Night Race (2021, 2024). On top of that, he also won two races of the NASCAR Xfinity Series that took place at Bristol.

All this makes Hamlin and Larson two experts when it comes to racing at the 0.533-mile oval in Tennessee. But that’s not the only reason why we consider them the top favorites for the 2025 Bristol Night Race.

Another reason – especially in Hamlin’s case – is the form. The Joe Gibbs Racing No. 11 is coming of a big win at Enjoy Illinois after finishing seventh in Darlington. As a result, he’s now at the top of the standings.

Larson’s form isn’t that great at the moment, but we know that this guy’s got the talent to win. And he’s hungry for success, given that he’s without a single win since May and the race in Kansas.

This Has Been Chase Briscoe’s Summer

The summer in the Northern hemisphere started on June 21, and a day later, Chase Briscoe won his first race of the 2025 Cup Series. From there, he went on to finish second in three of the nine races in the remainder of the regular season.

Then, when the 2025 Playoffs started, he really shifted to the top gear. He won the Cook Out Southern 500 in Darlington, then finished second in the Enjoy Illinois race.

We’re not bragging, but our top prediction for that race was “Briscoe Top 3 Finish,” for which the odds were +275. Guess what? We have the same prediction for the 2025 Bass Pro Shops Night Race. But who are we backing to win on September 13? Let’s find out!

2025 Bass Pro Shops Night Race

Our 2025 Bass Pro Shops Night Race prediction is that Chase Briscoe will finish in the Top 3, and so will Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson. But which of these guys will win the race?

Our pick is Larson. His record at Bristol Motor Speedway is fantastic, and this guy’s hungry for wins, considering that it’s been more than 120 days since his last triumph.

Pick: Kyle Larson
