NASCAR Cup Broadcast Schedule: How to Watch After Prime Video Leaves

NASCAR will return to TNT and HBO Max for the next five weeks, following Prime Video’s recent five‑week broadcast, which wrapped with the San Diego street‑course event at Naval Base Coronado.

The events at Sonoma, Chicagoland, Atlanta, North Wilkesboro and the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis will be streamed live on TNT and on HBO Max, which will continue to provide on‑board camera coverage for each race weekend.

The arrangement is simple: viewers can watch via traditional cable or stream the races on HBO Max. In addition, all practice and qualifying sessions are available live on truTV and via HBO Max. As has been the case throughout the season, Max will continue to broadcast onboard cameras for the full field on race day, including team radio communications.

The broadcast booth remains unchanged from Prime’s coverage, featuring Adam Alexander as the play‑by‑play announcer alongside Dale Earnhardt Jr. and former crew chief Steve Letarte.

The pre‑race show and post‑race show will also feature Earnhardt and Letarte, as well as Jamie McMurray, and will be hosted by Marty Smith. Jeff Burton will serve as a studio analyst for the Chicagoland and Atlanta races, while Jimmie Johnson joins as an analyst for the events at Sonoma, North Wilkesboro and Indianapolis.

Shannon Spake, Danielle Trotta and Marty Snider will serve as pit reporters for the upcoming five races, while Mamba Smith will act as a special correspondent for B/R Racing.

“Last year marked an exciting return to NASCAR for TNT Sports, and we’re just getting started,” said Craig Barry, EVP and Chief Content Officer of TNT Sports. “This year, we are expanding our studio programming and bringing some of the sport’s most recognizable voices to our already talented NASCAR broadcast team. We remain committed to creating new ways to give fans closer access to the sport they love. These additions will help us continue to elevate the experience and capture the energy, excitement and culture that make NASCAR unique.”

TNT will again host the NASCAR In‑Season Challenge, in which the winning driver receives a $1 million prize and fans can also win the same amount through a perfect bracket.
