About this schedule

This NASCAR TV schedule lists every live Cup, Xfinity and Truck Series race and qualifying session with its start time and the channel or streaming app carrying it.

NASCAR's national TV deal splits the season across several partners. FOX and its FS1 cable channel carry the spring portion of the Cup Series schedule, NBC and USA Network pick up the summer and fall stretch including the playoffs, while TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video each hold a smaller midseason package. The second-tier series (formerly Xfinity) and the Truck Series usually race the day before the Cup Series at the same track.

Qualifying sessions and practice are typically shown on whichever cable channel is paired with that week's race broadcaster, often with less promotion than the race itself, so they're easy to miss if you're only checking the main network listing. This page lists qualifying separately where it has a confirmed broadcast slot, alongside the race itself, so you can catch both without digging through a separate schedule.

The Cup Series season runs from February's Daytona 500 through the championship race in November, with the broadcast partner changing a handful of times across that stretch as the TV deal rotates. Start times can shift with a rain delay or a network's own programming, and a race can move to a cable companion channel when the main network needs the slot for another live event.
