2024 Coca-Cola 400 Prop Bet of the Week
Bubba Wallace: Top-10 Finish (+130)
The Coca-Cola 600 is the longest race of the season. To cash a ticket, I’m looking for someone who will have speed throughout their green flag runs, race conservatively and find their way into the mix at the end. Bubba Wallace fits the mold of that description and is flying under the radar this week. His downside this year has been having a fast car and finding his way into carnage late in races.
Last year’s Coca-Cola 600 saw its fair amount of carnage as many of the big names, such as Chase Elliott and Denny Hamlin, had their days end early. The 23XI team ran well here last year as both Tyler Reddick and Wallace could be found running inside of the top 10 for the majority of the race. Wallace ended stage No. 2 in 10th place, but he wasn’t finished. The No. 23 team found something later in the race, and he went on to finish fourth. His teammate Reddick trailed right behind him, rounding out the top five.
Wallace should have speed here again and I’m banking on him to run the clean race that he and his team so desperately need.
