NASCAR heads to Martinsville Speedway for a busy tripleheader weekend as all three national series continue their championship battles.
The Craftsman Truck Series opens the action Friday, followed by the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series on Saturday and the Cup Series on Sunday. The 0.526-mile short track, known as “The Paperclip,” hosts the penultimate race weekend of The Chase presented by Mobil 1.
With only one championship weekend remaining after Martinsville, drivers across all three divisions face an important test before the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Fans will have three days of racing, with practice and qualifying sessions setting the stage for each event.
