Martin Truex Jr. this week was an easy choice as the sportsbooks favorite. However, nothing is automatic at road course racing. Look at how electric Chase Elliott was at one time. That seems like a distant memory Lately, Ford has been dominating races.. 2024 NASCAR Sonoma bets wonder can Truex Jr deliver? Now, that answer appears to be no based on his latest results.
The 2024 season saw the New Jersey native finish 25th, 12th, and 34th in his past three races. That includes a rough time at Gateway last Sunday. Truex Jr. led one lap before disaster struck. Going for stage success ended up being the dagger that ended his day effectively. Sonoma is a different story. Aside from 2022, Truex Jr. has won three times and finished third in 2021.
With Truex Jr., he fell to fourth in the points standings after the three-point disaster last Sunday. No one expects Truex Jr. to go winless like he did in 2022. On the 1.99-mile repave, Truex Jr. should be able to thrive even if he does not win the pole. The 25-35-50 stage structure favors a racer like the Joe Gibbs driver. Now is the time for the No. 19 car to show what he can do.
At Sonoma since 2016 minus 2022 (JGR junk, in 13th but pitted late hoping to catch a lucky break caution that never materialized) and 2017 where his engine blew up, Martin Truex Jr. has a 2.2 average finish.

Naturally, at Vegas Betting, we know Martin Truex Jr. is in the +500 to +550 range. A Top 3 on Bovada pays at +160 and a Top 5 is at -135. Though the podium seems like the plan, let us take the risk go for the checkered flag err win.
So, could Joey Logano be a crazy long shot? The last three winners at Sonoma include Daniel Suarez and Kyle Larson along with Truex Jr. It gets more interesting when we consider how good the Ford cars have been the past few weeks. 2024 NASCAR Sonoma Bets spotlight the No. 20 driver who has a bit of history on the California track.
Again, at Vegas Betting, this choice carries some risk. After all, the Team Penske driver has led a mere nine laps in the last eight races. This is despite four Top 5 results. Logano has done literally everything but win. 2022 was probably his best chance but problems late faded him to 17th.
Joey Logano’s record on new tracks & repaves is unbelievable.

You bet your ass I’m on him. Time to really test it.
Alright, that is partly why we are taking the plunge here. At +4500, this is crazy enough to work on the 1.99-mile track. Repaves and new tracks are something of a speciality for the Ford driver. On top of that, there are a few options including +575 for a Top 5 and +250 for a Top 10 result. Those are not bad to take.
People know that Logano can be extremely dangerous on tracks like this and road courses to boot. The two-time NASCAR Champion has two Top 5’s and four Top 10’s in 15 races. That is it. Logano’s last winless season was in 2011. No one expects that now. Contending is a likely outcome here even if winning is not.
Okay, how about some more 2024 NASCAR Sonoma Bets? Yes, potential Top 3 or podium choices are more intriguing. Perusing up and down the odds lists reveal some interesting wrinkles. One has to be Ty Gibbs. When is he going to win? He is very good on repaves and road courses as well. He showed Top 5 speed last year at Sonoma. Gibbs has three Top 5’s in nine career road races at the top level.
Keep in mind, everyone expects a Ford on the pole and it may be Michael McDowell again. The Front Row Motorsports driver is leaving the team after this year but the No. 34 car has been ridiculously fast in qualifying lately. It would be an interesting flyer.
Taking more risks involves looking at a Chris Buescher again to win at +1600. While many focus on Ty Gibbs and others, Buescher finished 8th at COTA despite a 20th-place start. Expect him to qualify better at Sonoma. This is a driver who has 11 Top 10’s in 19 road races.
Finally, Chase Elliott might be a fun wager to look at for a Top 3 result even a Top 5. Right now, both are at plus money though the Top 5 is merely at a +125. That podium finish rises up to +275, however. He has been 5th, 8th, and 2nd the past three seasons.
Truex Jr. is our pick for the 2024 NASCAR Toyota/Save Mart 350 choice for Sunday evening.
