You reside in Central Texas, and you’ve heard about the races at the Circuit of the Americas this weekend. Perhaps you were interested and are considering going to the track. If so, here are some things to be aware of. Am I an expert on NASCAR? Absolutely not, but I know how to Google. Here’s what I found out about NASCAR’s Echopark Automotive Grand Prix at Austin’s Circuit of the Americas.
Has there ever been a NASCAR race at COTA?
COTA has been hosting its annual NASCAR event for the past five years. Past champions of COTA’s NASCAR grand prix include Chase Elliot, Ross Chastain, Tyler Reddick and William Byron, who won last year’s race.
What’s the duration of NASCAR at COTA?
In just over three hours, three of the last four NASCAR at COTA champions completed their races. Anything is possible, as demonstrated by the 2024 champion Byron, who completed his race in two hours and forty-three minutes.
Are NASCAR races always round?
Even though NASCAR races at more than 33 circuits, not all of them are the well-known circular circles. Though the tracks can vary in size and shape, the two most well-known enormous ovals are the Talladega Superspeedway and the Daytona International Speedway. Therefore, while racing at COTA, they could need to make a right turn, even though it is NASCAR.
Who are the COTA NASCAR racers?
This weekend, former champions Chastain and Byron will compete at COTA. Joey Logano, Austin Cindric, Ryan Blaney, Kyle Busch, Denny Bell, and Carson Hocevar are among the other racers. Perhaps you should watch Blaney and Busch, as they spent some time sightseeing Austin before the racing did. Although I’m not an expert, I suppose they’re pretty fast.
What time does NASCAR begin at COTA?
The official race will take place on Sunday, although COTA will conduct festivities throughout the weekend. The first two days are devoted for qualifying and practice laps and fan festivities. On Sunday, the Echopark Automotive Grand Prix gets underway at 2:30 p.m.
The Circuit of the Americas is located where?
I should probably include this as well. The Circuit of the Americas is located at 9201 Circuit of the Americas Blvd., Del Valle, TX 78617 for Texans and others. Yes, exactly. Austin isn’t even where it is!
