Is there a NASCAR race today? The NASCAR TV schedule for COTA this weekend
Get set and buckle in: NASCAR is making left AND right turns for this first time this year.
Yep, NASCAR heads to its first road course, visiting the Circuit of the Americas this weekend and wouldn't you know it, the band is back together, with a tripleheader of Cup, Xfinity and Craftsman Truck Series practices, qualifying sessions and races set to go.
Last week was, well, it was something. Bristol devolved into a tire-saving race complete with calamity and eventually ending in Denny Hamlin's first win of the season. He became the fifth winner in as many Cup events, clinching a spot in the playoffs along the way.
This will mark the fourth event at COTA in the Cup Series with three drivers each picking up a win in that time (Chase Elliott, Ross Chastain and Tyler Reddick).
