What channel is NASCAR on today? TV schedule live, start time for Richmond race

PostedAt: Sun, May 9, 2021 8:47 AM

Which channels have NASCAR programming this week? We answer that and give the weekly NASCAR television listings here in the NASCAR TV schedule.

For those who are asking "What channel is today's NASCAR race on?" the answer is a familiar one.

The TV channel for Sunday's NASCAR race is Fox. The network will air the Toyota Owners 400 from Richmond Raceway. The race is the ninth race of the NASCAR Cup Series 2021 season, and Fox or FS1 has been the channel for all nine races. FS1 made its 2021 debut last weekend with the race at Martinsville.

Sunday's race will start at a familiar time as well: The green flag is scheduled to drop at 3:15 p.m. ET.

Below is how to watch Sunday afternoon's NASCAR Cup Series race, including the TV channel and live stream options:

What channel is NASCAR on today?

Fox will air Sunday's race, the ninth of the NASCAR Cup Series 2021 season. Fox and Fox Sports 1 are scheduled to air NASCAR Cup Series races during the first four months of the Cup Series schedule, through the June 13 All-Star Race at Texas. NBC and NBC Sports Network are scheduled to air the remaining races in 2021, including the playoffs.

As is the case for all the Cup Series races on Fox this season, Mike Joy will call the race with the assistance of analysts Jeff Gordon, Clint Bowyer and Larry McReynolds.

The green flag for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond Raceway is scheduled to drop at 3:15 p.m. ET.

It's unlikely that weather will delay the start. The National Weather Service's midweek forecast for Richmond, Va., called for partly sunny skies and a high temperature near 70 degrees, the capper to a dry weekend.
