NASCAR Great American Getaway 400 Winner, Top 10 Predictions for Pocono – Sunday, June 14

Briscoe led for 72 laps in last June’s victory at Pocono Raceway, the first time he finished higher than 15th in six career races in Pennsylvania.

Hamlin finished second despite grabbing the first stage, while Ryan Blaney closed third. Blaney held off Hamlin in the 2024 Pocono event, denying Denny his second straight victory at this track.

Chase Elliott owns four consecutive Top 10 finishes at Pocono, including his only career win at this track in 2022.

Blaney placed 33rd and 30th in back-to-back years at Pocono before Top 3 finishes in the last two races. Kyle Larson seeks his first Pocono win in 19 tries, owning a pair of second-place finishes in 2021 and 2018.

The favorite to win the Great American Getaway 400 is Denny Hamlin, entering Sunday's race (1:00 p.m. ET), according to PrizePicks Team Picks.

Hamlin currently has a 2.77x payout ($100 pays out $277) if he wins, while several other drivers, including Larson, are right behind him at a 5.26x payout to win at Pocono, according to PrizePicks.

Payout multipliers listed below (like 2x) indicate real-money earnings if your NASCAR predictions are correct; for example, 2x on a $100 entry pays $200 if correct on PrizePicks Team Picks — available in 35 states. “Yes” payouts represent a specific outcome occurring, whereas "No" payouts indicate the opposite.
