How to Watch the First NASCAR Race Since COVID-19 Today
Like other sports, NASCAR’s personal races have been canceled for several months. Instead, the organization ran virtual races in which racers competed using simulation rather than driving real cars . Today; however, NASCAR has returned to its first personal race since the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Real Heroes 400 race will take place today at Darlington Raceway at 3:00 pm ET on FOX. The pilots will be present in person, but there will be no fans in the stands.
While lighting starts at 3:00 PM, healthcare professionals across the country will instruct drivers to start their engines at 3:42 AM, and the race will officially begin at 3:53 AM.
The race is 293 laps for a total of 400 miles.
If you want to watch, the easiest way is to simply tune in to the FOX broadcast via your cable subscription or digital antenna. If you don’t have a TV, you can also watch online through most of the major streaming services, and they all offer free trials if you haven’t tried them yet.
It’s worth noting that FOX is not available for all streaming services in every market, so if you sign up specifically to catch the race, you need to make sure FOX is supported in your market before you do. Here’s a rundown of all of your streaming options, as well as how much they’ll cost if you forget to cancel that subscription:
Hulu with Live TV $ 54.99 / month
YouTubeTV $ 49.99 per month
AT&T TV is now $ 50 a month
FuboTV $ 55 First Month
Sling TV – $ 20 for the first month.
