Attrition context: 13% of cars have failed to finish at intermediate ovals in the current-car era (2022 on). The model prices pace; a wreck or a blown engine can beat any number below.

WHY?

Agatha prices every car she has data on, and Denny Hamlin comes out on top at 24.6%.

Calibrated win probabilities from 77 seasons of Cup results. In the current parity era the field runs closer than the historical backtest, so an unusually large favorite tends to run cooler than its number. Information only, never a staked play.
