What to know about the NASCAR race today

0

The biggest names in the NASCAR Cup Series visit Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Ambetter Health 400 on Sunday.

The Ambetter Health 400 is the second race of the NASCAR Cup Series season. Atlanta Motor Speedway is 1.5 miles (2.41 km) long, so the 400-mile race requires 260 laps to complete.

William Byron, who earned the victory in Monday’s Daytona 500 for Hendrick Motorsports, will return to AMS, a track where he’s previously won. 

Joey Logano will have the opportunity to defend his Ambetter Health 400 title. Last year, Logano pulled down to the inside lane through the final two corners and crossed the finish line 0.193 seconds ahead of Brad Keselowski and 0.194 seconds ahead of third-place Christopher Bell.

Bell and Keselowski will also compete in the race and potentially get some retribution from last year’s dramatic finish.

The Ambetter Health 400 was first run in 1960 as the Dixie 300, with Fireball Roberts the event’s first winner. The race has changed names numerous times since then and was more recently known as the QuikTrip Folds of Honor 500. 

Hendrick Motorsports holds the most wins with 10. Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Bobby Labonte and Jimmie Johnson are tied with 4 wins each at the event.

This year’s Ambetter Health 400 will be broadcast on Fox in the United States. Canadian viewers can follow the action on TSN1.

Mike Joy will lead the coverage in the U.S., serving as the race’s lap-by-lap announcer. He’ll be joined in the booth by former Cup Series veterans Clint Bowyer and Tony Stewart.

Viewers can also find Sunday’s race on FoxSports.com, as well as Fubo, which offers a free trial.

Sunday’s race has a 3 p.m. ET listed start time. However, pre-race activities are expected to push the waving of the green flag to approximately 3:15 p.m. ET.
