What time does the NASCAR race start today? TV schedule, channel, live stream for 2025 Texas race

2 hours ago 1

The 2025 Würth 400 is set to drop the green flag at Texas Motor Speedway, bringing high-speed drama back to the Lone Star State. Spanning 400 miles over 267 laps, this race marks the eleventh stop on the NASCAR Cup Series calendar.

Only two non-charter drivers will take the plunge this Sunday: Chad Finchum and Jesse Love. Love, suiting up for Beard Motorsports in the No. 62, will be making just his second Cup appearance of the season following his run at Bristol. As for Finchum, he’s hopping into the No. 66 for his first spin of 2025.

Despite all the roaring engines and burning rubber, the Texas track itself remains a hot topic of debate. After a controversial reconfiguration that altered the banking in turns one and two, passing lanes have become as rare as a caution-free race, with many drivers left stuck in a single-groove slog.

Still, last year’s edition of the Würth 400 managed to turn some heads, delivering tighter action than expected as Chase Elliott raced his way to victory lane.
