CONCORD, N.C. - NASCAR Speedweeks may have been condensed into Speedweek, but there's still a ton of racing to take in this week at Daytona International Speedway. Of course, it all culminates with Sunday's 67th running of the DAYTONA 500.
With NASCAR's new media rights deals kicking in this year, trying to find where to watch can be a bit tricky. Don't worry, we've got you covered.
Wednesday starts the on-track festivities with the first of three Cup Series practices at 10:05 a.m. and later that night, pole qualifying is slated for 8:15. Thursday, Friday and Saturday involves events in all four of NASCAR's touring series - the Cup Series, Xfinity Series, CRAFTSMAN Truck Series and ARCA Series.
Hendrick Motorsports will look to claim its second straight DAYTONA 500 after William Byron inched past teammate Alex Bowman for the win last year. Another victory would give the organization 10 wins in the Great American Race. Its nine currently places it in a tie for the most all time.
Here's how to watch this week's racing as the NASCAR season opens:
