The Michigan International Speedway will host 2010 Carfax 400 odds on Sunday at 1:00pm EST on ESPN with Jimmie Johnson +300 as the NASCAR betting favorite at online sportsbooks to win the 2 mile D shaped oval that is one of the fastest on the circuit. Johnson is gunning for his fifth consecutive Sprint Cup championship and is currently 5th in the standings. Johnson is tied with Denny Hamlin for the most wins in the series this far at 5. In his remarkable career, Michigan has been one of the few tracks that has eluded Johnson as he has never won there in NASCAR betting odds and has an average finish of 15.4.
Hamlin is a longshot choice in Carfax 400 odds at online sportsbooks with a +1200 price. He is 6th in the Sprint Cup standings and has 1 win at Michigan with an average finish of 12th.
