Well, I reckon y’all are wonderin’ who’s gonna be drivin’ in today’s big NASCAR race, right? Ain’t no need to fret, I gotcha covered. Now, today’s the day for the NASCAR race, it’s Sunday, and it’s gonna be a good one! The race is takin’ place down at the Phoenix Raceway, where them drivers gonna put on a real show for us. Let me tell ya, it’s a fine day for some racin’. Ain’t no way you’re gonna wanna miss this!
Now, if you’ve been followin’ the Cup Series, you’d know that Martin Truex Jr. is takin’ the pole position today. That means he’ll be startin’ up front, ready to race like the wind. Martin’s been workin’ real hard, and this is gonna be his last race as a full-time driver, so I’m sure he’ll be lookin’ to make it count. I reckon he’s gonna give them boys a run for their money, for sure.
But don’t you go thinkin’ Martin’s the only one out there to keep your eye on. No sir, there’s a whole bunch of them drivers that are rarin’ to go. We got Ryan Blaney, who won at Martinsville just recently and has been runnin’ hot. Then there’s William Byron, another fast one, and Joey Logano, always up in the mix. Don’t forget about Tyler Reddick, neither – that young fella’s been impressin’ folks with his speed.

The race today is the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race, and it’s goin’ down right at Phoenix Raceway. Now, I’m tellin’ ya, the cars are gonna be zoomin’ around that track like nobody’s business. It’s a 312-lap race, so them boys gonna be burnin’ rubber for a good while. I don’t know ‘bout y’all, but I get real excited watchin’ ‘em all fightin’ for that win.
Now, if you’re wonderin’ when this thing’s gonna start, you better mark your calendar ‘cause the race kicks off at 3 p.m. ET, or 1 p.m. local time if you’re down in Avondale. You got plenty of time to get your snacks ready and settle in for some top-notch racin’ action.
You can even watch the race online, if that’s what suits ya best. They’re streamin’ it over on NBC Sports. Just hop online, find the stream, and you can watch the whole race from the comfort of your own home. No need to be out there at the track, though I reckon if you could be there in person, that’d be mighty excitin’, too.
Here’s a quick rundown of the folks who’ll be in the starting lineup today, so you can keep track of ‘em as the race goes on:
- Martin Truex Jr. – Starting in the front row, he’s gunnin’ for that big win.
- Ryan Blaney – He’s been on fire lately, don’t count him out.
- William Byron – Always a strong contender, look out for him.
- Joey Logano – A seasoned vet, he knows how to get it done.
- Tyler Reddick – A young gun with a lotta talent, keep yer eyes on him!
So, y’all get ready to watch them cars goin’ round and round. It’s gonna be a good race, no doubt about it. I just hope one of the drivers I mentioned takes home the big win today. But in NASCAR, you never know who’s gonna pull ahead at the last minute, so it’s anybody’s guess.
Well, I reckon that’s all you need to know for now. Go ahead and make yourself comfortable, grab a cold drink, and enjoy the race! Hope y’all have a good time watchin’ the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race today!
