4 years agoMartin Truex Jr. excels at short-track racing and rallied late at the Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500 last Sunday. He passed Denny Hamlin with just mere laps to go and sailed by to win at Martinsville. Truex Jr. became the first two-time winner of the 2021 season. Truex Jr. remains a favorite to win consecutive races as he comes in with 4 to 1 odds to take home the Toyota Owners 400. The 3/4 mile track suits the Joe Gibbs Racing driver as the No. 19 has won two of the last three races at Richmond with a second-place result in the other.--Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
