Hendrick Motorsports teammates Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and defending champion Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start 1-2-3 in Sunday’s Sprint Cup season-opening Daytona 500.
The TV ratings for the race are already sure to be there and it can’t hurt that three of NASCAR’s most popular drivers are at the top of the lineup. Gordon won last weekend’s pole for the top spot.
The 57th running of The Great American Race airs on FOX at 1 p.m. Eastern.
Mike Joy will handle the lap-by-lap and he’ll be joined by analysts Darrell Waltrip and Larry McReynolds. Jamie Little, Chris Neville, Matt Yocum and Vince Welch are on pit road.
NASCAR RaceDay will air from 10:30 a.m. to noon Eastern on Fox Sports 1, then pre-race coverage will shift to FOX at 12 p.m. Eastern.
Danielle Trotta hosts pre-race show for FS1.
