TNT revs up for six-race 2014 NASCAR Summer Series

TNT’s presentation of the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series will feature all-access coverage throughout the six-week NASCAR Summer Series. The network’s coverage will start Sunday, June 8 at Pocono Raceway (1 p.m. ET) and conclude July 13 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

In its 32nd consecutive year of NASCAR Summer Series coverage, TNT will feature six consecutive Sprint Cup races: Pocono Raceway (June 8); Michigan International Speedway (June 15); Sonoma Raceway (June 22); Kentucky Speedway (June 28); Daytona International Speedway (July 5); and New Hampshire Motor Speedway (July 13).

The six-race schedule features a diverse blend of venues -- a three-turn triangular track (Pocono); the first road race of 2014 (Sonoma); a long two-mile track (Michigan); and a one-mile oval (New Hampshire) -- that have led to unpredictable outcomes.

The network will return its marquee commentator crew with analysts Kyle Petty, Wally Dallenbach and Larry McReynolds joining play-by-play announcer Adam Alexander for each race. Alexander will also host the network’s 60-minute Countdown to Green pre-race show with Petty, Dallenbach and McReynolds. In addition, veteran reporters Ralph Sheheen, Marty Snider, Matt Yocum and Chris Neville will patrol pit road to bring viewers comprehensive coverage and access prior to and during each race.
