The NASCAR Cup Series runs the short-track Saturday night classic at Richmond Raceway, a .75-mile D-shaped oval where bumpers, brake temps, and tire fall-off decide the finishing order. Richmond rewards a patient driver who saves the right-front for the final stage. The summer date sits inside the regular-season playoff push, with cutline drivers needing a strong points night or a flat-out win to lock a postseason berth.
Watch the opening stage for short-run speed off fresh Goodyears, then the tire wear that opens up by lap 100 as the leaders work through lapped traffic. Joe Gibbs Racing historically owns Richmond, with Hamlin and Truex regulars near the front, while Hendrick brings Larson and Byron in a Chevy versus Toyota fight that always heats up after dark. Pit strategy splits the second stage, and the final stage usually turns on a late caution and a two-tire call that puts a contender out front for the run to the checkered flag.
