Following last Sunday’s race at Richmond Raceway, NASCAR is heading southwest for a Saturday evening race at Martinsville Speedway.
This year, the race is going to be a little bit different. The race at “The Paperclip” will only be 400 laps as opposed to 500 as it has been in the past.
After Martin Truex Jr. came up just short in his bid for a win last weekend, he has to be feeling confident coming into Saturday. He has won each of the past two Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500s. He’ll be looking for his first win in the 2022 Cup Series season.
Here is everything you need to know about Saturday’s Cup Series race, the Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 400, including the start time and TV channel.
