NASCAR Talladega Schedule: TV Channels, Start Times and How to Watch
Full schedule of the NASCAR weekend at Talladega Superspeedway.
NASCAR is set to bring its top three racing series to the notoriously challenging Talladega Superspeedway this weekend. The event will feature the Craftsman Truck Series, O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, and Cup Series in a tripleheader weekend of racing.
Friday, October 23rd will kick off the weekend with the Craftsman Truck Series Love’s RV Stop 225 qualifying session, starting at 12:30 p.m. ET on FS2, FOX One. The Craftsman Truck Series will then take to the track for a race at 4:00 p.m. ET, also on FS1 and FOX One. No practice session is scheduled for this event.
On Saturday, October 24th, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series will kick off the action with qualifying at 11:00 a.m. ET on ESPN Unlimited. The main event, the Progress Group 250, will follow at 1:00 p.m. ET on The CW, ESPN Unlimited, and via Motor Racing Network (MRN) and SiriusXM Radio. Again, no practice session is scheduled for this event.
Finally, Sunday, October 25th, will see the highlight of the weekend with the Cup Series YellaWood 500. The 2:00 p.m. ET start time will be broadcast on NBC, HBO Max, as well as via MRN and SiriusXM Radio.
Defending Cup Series champion Chase Briscoe enters the YellaWood 500 as the man to beat. Briscoe, who captured the No. 19 Ford's first Talladega win on Friday, is looking to extend his winning streak and secure a spot in the Championship 4 race at Phoenix. His teammate, Christopher Bell, currently sits second in the points standings, just five points behind the leader, Kyle Larson.
