We’ll talk about IndyCar…tomorrow, maybe? But they’re off this weekend. Losers. Here’s the weekend schedule in NASCAR and Formula 1:
Friday
NASCAR Xfinity Series: Wawa 250
Where: Daytona International Speedway (again I do not know what makes a speedway international these are not airports people you do not use these as embarkation devices for your transnational travel)
When: 7:30 PM EDT
Broadcast: NBCSN
No preview, as always, but we’ll mention the winner and anything noteworthy in tomorrow’s Cup preview.
Saturday
NASCAR Cup Series: Coke Zero Sugar 400
Where: Daytona International Speedway
When: 7:00 PM EDT
Broadcast: NBC
Full preview tomorrow, but first: I still think of this as the Pepsi 400, and I’d love to sit in on the cola bidding war for naming rights; and second: I am so excited this is a huge race in almost all the ways NASCAR really set this up well for themselves.
Sunday
Formula 1: Rolex Belgian Grand Prix 2021
Where: Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps (not a spa, it’s a racetrack, and it’s near the German border in Wallonia)
When: 9:00 AM EDT
Broadcast: ESPN
Preview…tomorrow, I think. I think we’ll preview this tomorrow. Feel like me getting it out before the race starts Sunday is unlikely.
