Nevada sportsbooks can now take wagers on the 2020 eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series, and betting will start with this weekend’s race at Bristol Motor Speedway. Also, Penn National Gaming will feature fantasy and prop betting options through their Finish Line application.

Although NASCAR suspended its real-life season back in March, drivers quickly adapted by participating in online races for fans. The sport, along with racing simulator firm iRacing, held the first eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series race two weeks ago — and FOX Sports agreed to televise it.

Now sports bettors can get in on the fun, too, as William Hill is currently accepting wagers for this Sunday’s race on their mobile betting app. They’re joined by Penn National Gaming, which is offering a $5,000 jackpot to players for “accurately predicting the top two finishers and the highest finishers across six different groupings of four drivers.”

Sunday’s race takes place at 1 PM EST, and you can tune in via Fox and FS1. Two heat races will determine the starting order, and then all drivers will go head-to-head in the Food City Showdown presented by M&Ms.

NASCAR stars Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, Jimmie Johnson, and Joey Logano will be in the field on Sunday — but none of them are the betting favorite. Real-life backmarker Timmy Hill has that honor after his win last weekend, and he’ll look to keep impressing fans and teams alike this Sunday.
