After hosting the Xfinity Series for the last 15 years, Iowa Speedway hosted the NASCAR Cup Series for the first time last season and it’s a stop on the NASCAR schedule yet again with the 2025 Iowa Corn 350 being held on the 0.875-mile oval on Sunday. Ryan Blaney won last year’s inaugural Cup run in Iowa and he’s one of three co-favorites in the 2025 Iowa Corn 350 odds at +500 along with Christopher Bell and Kyle Larson. Meanwhile, Bubba Wallace likely punched his ticket into the 2025 NASCAR playoffs after a win last week at the Brickyard and he’s a +4400 longshot in the NASCAR at Iowa odds.
Chris Buescher is the new bubble boy after Wallace’s win last week and he’s listed +2500 while first man out Ryan Preece is +5000 to score a win that would get him into the postseason. The green flag will drop at 3:30 p.m. ET on Sunday and the race is scheduled for 350 laps around the D-shaped oval. Before entering any 2025 Iowa Corn 350 picks, be sure to see the latest 2025 NASCAR at Iowa predictions from SportsLine’s proven projection model.

McClure’s model began the 2025 season by calling Chase Elliott’s win in the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray for a +300 payout. Then it went on to predict Kyle Larson in Miami (+350), Christopher Bell’s NASCAR All-Star Race win (+600), Denny Hamlin’s win in Michigan (+650), Shane van Gisbergen’s win in Mexico City (+330), Elliott’s win in Atlanta (+1500) and van Gisbergen again in Chicago (+150) and Sonoma (+125).
All told, the model has nailed eight winners this year and a whopping 26 winners since 2021.

Top 2025 Iowa Corn 350 predictions
For Sunday’s 2025 Iowa Corn 350, the model is high on Ross Chastain, even though he’s a longshot at +2700 in the latest 2025 NASCAR at Iowa odds from FanDuel. He’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday, and first-time users can also get $150 in bonus bets if their first bet wins with this FanDuel promo code.
Chastain is currently 13th in the NASCAR standings but he’s punched his ticket into the Round of 16 by way of a win in Charlotte where he came all the way from last in the pack. He’s in a bit of a rut with finishes outside the top 20 in five of his last six races, but he has had some short-track success this season with top-10 finishes at Martinsville and Bristol.
Last year, he started 17th in the Iowa Corn 350 but managed to work his way into the top third of the field for an 11th-place finish. He’s also had four top-10 finishes in nine career starts at Iowa in the NASCAR Xfinity Series and went on to finish second there after winning the pole in the 2013 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race there. Get $150 in bonus bets instantly at Fanduel if your $5 bet wins.
The model has also revealed a shocking NASCAR prop for Sunday: Josh Berry finishes top 10 for a +100 payout. He’s a potentially a strong value pick for your Iowa NASCAR prop bets at DraftKings.
Berry is also likely into the 2025 NASCAR Playoffs thanks to a win in Las Vegas, but four first-time winners over the next four weeks would force him into needing to rely on points so he’s still got plenty of incentive to run well over the next month. He’ll be looking to put as many points on the board as possible to avoid any nightmare scenario and a second win would also guarantee his safety.
He had a 10-week stretch where he led in six races (including his win in Las Vegas) and piled up 169 laps led during that span. Berry also had a fourth-place finish on a short oval in Phoenix and was third on another short oval in New Hampshire. Most importantly, he qualified third and led 32 laps before finishing seventh in Iowa last season.
