The penultimate race of the NASCAR Cup Series schedule will have an international flavor as drivers hailing from seven nations will compete in the 2022 Go Bowling at The Glen race on Sunday at Watkins Glen International. In addition to more than 30 Americans, participants from countries such as Mexico, England, Russia and the Netherlands will try to capture the checkered flag. Also racing at NASCAR at Watkins Glen 2022 will be 2007 Formula 1 world champion Kimi Raikkonen of FInland and German driver Mike Rockenfeller, who won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2010. The green flag drops at 3 p.m. ET.
Chase Elliott is the 9-2 favorite in the latest 2022 Go Bowling at The Glen odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Tyler Reddick is 13-2, reigning Cup Series champion Kyle Larson, who won this race last year, is 7-1 among the 2022 NASCAR at Watkins Glen contenders. You'll want to check out the NASCAR at Watkins Glen predictions from Micah Roberts, the legendary Vegas bookmaker who pioneered wagering on racing, before locking in any 2022 Go Bowling at The Glen picks of your own.
Roberts, a former Vegas bookmaker, was the first to offer expanded NASCAR betting, and now hands out NASCAR winners to his followers on SportsLine. Roberts is the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert, and his top pick, Elliott, won the Jockey Made in America 250 last season.
He also correctly predicted the 2021 Coca-Cola 600 winner, hitting Larson's victory at 11-2 odds, and was on point by targeting Elliott as the winner of the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix at 8-5 odds the previous week. In addition, Roberts nailed last year's GEICO 500 when he predicted Brad Keselowski to win at 14-1 odds. Anyone who has followed his picks has cashed tickets.
Now, Roberts has analyzed the field and odds for Sunday's NASCAR at Watkins Glen 2022 race. He's only sharing his winner and projected leaderboard at SportsLine.
2022 Go Bowling at The Glen expert picks
One shocker: Roberts is low on Larson, even though he's one of the top 2022 Go Bowling at The Glen contenders. In fact, Roberts says Larson, who won this race last season for his fourth top-10 finish in seven Cup Series starts at Watkins Glen, barely even cracks the top 20.
"The new car took away all of Larson's strength, and he's been stuck on one win since the second race of the season at Fontana," Roberts told SportsLine. "He's been rather ordinary over the last six weeks."
Another curveball: Roberts is high on Kevin Harvick, even though he's a 28-1 long shot in the latest NASCAR at Watkins Glen odds. The 46-year-old Californian officially has broken out of his slump, winning his last two starts after going 65 consecutive races without a victory. Harvick, who hasn't captured three straight checkered flags since 2018, won this race in 2006 and has posted 11 top-10 finishes in 20 Cup Series starts at Watkins Glen International while also recording eight in as many Xfinity Series events.
"He's running better than most right now and he won at both a big track (Michigan) and a short track (Richmond)," Roberts told SportsLine. "He should be able to run well here, too." You can see who else to back here.
How to make 2022 Go Bowling at The Glen predictions
Roberts is high on a massive long shot who "grew up racing on road courses." This driver is being underestimated by oddsmakers, and anyone who backs him could hit it big. You can only see who it is here.
