NASCAR Cup in Atlanta free live stream: How to watch Ambetter Health 400 online, TV, time
The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Atlanta for the Ambetter Health 400 on Sunday, Feb. 25. The race will be live streamed on DirecTV Stream (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial).
William Byron has flourished at the reconfigured Atlanta Motor Speedway, winning two of four NASCAR Cup Series races since a fresh surface and higher banks provided a dramatic face-lift to the track.
That doesn’t mean Byron feels totally comfortable in Atlanta.
Ford drivers won seven of the top nine spots in qualifying. Michael McDowell won his first pole in his 467th career start. Following a close runner-up finish behind Joey Logano in last week’s Daytona 500 qualifying, McDowell edged Logano Saturday.
Kyle Bush qualified third and Kyle Larson was fifth, one spot behind Todd Gilliland’s Ford, for the only Chevrolets in the top nine.
Atlanta added superspeedway-style racing to its 1.54-mile track in its reconfiguration following the 2021 season. There is less width for passing as well as higher banks. Before the changes, drivers made annual pleas to keep the old, battered surface and spoke in near-unanimous tones about their fondness for racing on the track.
