Federated Auto Parts 400: NASCAR Richmond cup race when and where to watch? How to watch live?

Richmond International Raceway

NASCAR Cup and the Truck series team will hit the Richmond Raceway for the second round of racing this year where the cup series drivers will be the hunt for the playoff spots whereas for Truck drivers it’s the championship battle altogether as they enter the second round of playoffs. The short track, which had one of the season’s least stunning races earlier, will be attempting to make up for it by having one of the best cup races of the year.

The battle for the cup series playoff spot will feature the imp0ressive line-up of Martin Truex Jr. Bubba Wallace, Ryan Blaney, Aric Alrimola, and Austin Dillon who all are winless so far this season just one win away from securing playoff entry. Ryan Blaney is the only driver that is in playoff position though winless so a different race winner other than his will see him missing out on the post-season if he goes winless throughout the last three races.

Kevin Harvick who won last weekend’s cup race at Michigan will be a driver to look up to in the coming races same as in the case of JGR driver Denny Hamlin who had an impressive run last Sunday. The Busch brothers are also in a peculiar situation going into the race weekend as the older one Kurt Busch will once again miss the race and will be substituted by Ty Gibbs while the younger Kyle Busch has been struggling to finish the races for the last few weeks.
