What time does the NASCAR race start today? Schedule, television channel for the Cup Series in Sonoma
Another one bites the dust.
Sonoma Raceway is one of the most unusual race tracks in the NASCAR Cup Series. The course of the road is unusually irregular in shape. Its asphalt surface is complemented by a dirt-laden landscape that often sends plumes of dust across the track.
Quite simply, Sonoma offers something that most other tracks don’t. And that should be fascinating entertainment. Racing conditions on the Toyota/Save Mart 350 make visibility a real concern for entrants.
And that means one thing for viewers: expect the unexpected.
