NASCAR 2022: Preview, prediction, and betting odds for Verizon 200 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway

The Verizon 200 at the Brickyard marks the 22nd race of the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season. The green flag is set to drop on Sunday, July 31, at 2:30 pm ET at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course. The 2.439-mile road course features 14 turns and an asphalt and brick track.

The first 21 NASCAR Cup races of the 2022 season saw 14 different winners: Austin Cindric, Kyle Larson, Alex Bowman, Chase Briscoe, William Byron, Ross Chastain, Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch, Chase Elliott, Joey Logano, Kurt Busch, Daniel Suarez, Tyler Reddick, and Christopher Bell.

Byron, Chastain, Hamlin, and Logano have two wins each and Elliott has four victories under his belt so far this season.
