Here is the thing about Martinsville Speedway: it is the penultimate race weekend of the 2026 season, and the stakes for this Chase tripleheader are entirely massive. Fans are currently waiting on pit stall assignments for the weekend, but the rest of the schedule is fully locked in.
First up, the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series takes over the track on Friday for the Love’s Black’s Tire 200 presented by Down East Heating & Air Conditioning. That battle kicks off at 6 p.m. ET, with live coverage on FS1, FOX One, NASCAR Racing Network Radio, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
Action continues on Saturday with the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series running the National Debt Relief 250. The green flag drops at 4 p.m. ET, and viewers can catch every lap on The CW, ESPN Unlimited, MRN Radio, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
Finally, Sunday brings the main event: the NASCAR Cup Series Xfinity 500 at Martinsville Speedway. Sunday's showdown starts at 2 p.m. ET, broadcast across NBC, HBO Max, MRN Radio, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. Stay tuned as final pit stall assignments drop for all three series before the machines hit the asphalt.
