Richmond weekend schedule

VjiIqvjwwkGx
Kevin Harvick is the recipient of some good luck at Darlington, Ryan Blaney is in an early points hole, Alex Bowman and William Byron are surging for Hendrick Motorsports, and Austin Dillon could be a playoff dark horse.

Richmond Raceway hosts its first NASCAR races of the season and the track’s weekend schedule will be busy with a Truck race, two Xfinity races and a Cup playoff race.

The Richmond weekend schedule begins with Thursday night’s Truck race. That marks the track’s first Truck race since 2005. The Xfinity Series races Friday night and Saturday afternoon. The Cup Series races Saturday night. No fans will be permitted at any of the races.
