What channel is NASCAR on today? TV schedule, start time for Watkins Glen race
When the Cup Series comes to Watkins Glen, sparks will fly.
Kyle Larson, last year’s series champion, completed a clinic in the final stages to secure a win at the Go Bowling at the Glen race. The win put him in a tie with Joe Gibbs Racing’s Denny Hamlin for the regular season points lead and set the stage for Larson’s postseason triumph.
With Hendrick Motorsports’ Chase Elliott holding a 19-point lead over Ross Chastain, this year’s race doesn’t seem all that important for the top of the standings. However, it gets interesting at the end of the playoff ranking.
Kevin Harvick turned his entire season with back-to-back wins in Michigan and Richmond. With just two races left in the regular season, drivers battling for last place in the playoffs are hoping for a similar twist of fate.
For the likes of Alex Bowman, Bubba Wallace and Martin Truex Jr., Go Bowling 2022 at the Glen means it all. A win seals a trip to the playoffs; Anything else means an early start to next season.
